Re-add library after windows reinstall

Neowton · Jul 5, 2022

On my PC I have 2 disks. I directed the install folder to be on disk #2. Lately I had to delete and reinstall disk #1, and disk #2 remained intact.

After setting up the app again, and redirecting the install folder as was earlier, the app still doesn't "see" the installed games. Is there a way to fix this?

Hi Neowton! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

This is for Xbox games right?

If that's the case to need to select install on the games, then select the same installation path and it should start the download, then pause it and restart it so it recognize the files on that path

Yes, Xbox app on the PC

Well, Tried that. But it got stuck as paused, don't know if because of something I did wrong, or the game (Age of Empires 4 + HDR) also downloaded the original game.

And then the disk was deleted by mistake, so now it's a theoretical question for another time

The normal steps to add a library didn't work for but updating to win8.1 seemed to fix the issue. Mangapuhi i think you should try reinstalling xbox music and also make sure that u indexed all your library (just search for indexing options in windows search.

Goodluck!

if you refresh windows or re install windows then you have to reinstall all the games, its not like other launchers where you can add already installed games.
