    Ready to install should be re-added with all available games (owned, GWG, GP)


    With the new UI updates, the Ready to install section was removed. Now if I want to see all my available games to download I have to go through three categories; All owned games, Xbox Game Pass, and Games with Gold. It would be so much better if all three were available in one section (if you are subscribed to both of course, otherwise only GWG or GP). There is already a little banner for the games showing if they are GWG, GP or if I own them so it would be easy to distinguish them if they were all in one section.

    Do you think Ready to install should come back?

    Forza horizon 2 isn’t on my download section but I know I own it

    This is a common problem with Xbox One Games With Gold since their purchase ID is different from an actual "own" purchase ID.

    To put it bluntly, when Forza Horizon 2 sale was removed from the Xbox Store in on September 30 in 2018, people who still had it installed with GwG can still play it and those who "purchased" it ("Buy to Own") can still find it in their Ready To Install
    list.

    Those who didn't "purchased" it ("Buy to Own") won't find it in their purchase history since GwG are not registered as "purchases". Ironically, you're allowed to buy DLCs with GwG licenses like if they were owned.

    Now, is it possible to recover the game? Yes, it's possible, but only for a really small amount of people.

    To download the game that is not available through the store, but you had unlocked with GwG, you got to do it from the Microsoft website on a PC and remotely install the game on the device.

    Here's the link toward the Forza Horizon 2 page :

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-ca/p/forza-horizon-2/c33b7578f782

    Note that the link might slightly change depending on your location. (I'm in Canada, hence the "en-ca" part of the link.)

    On that page, if you're properly logged in, you should see a blue button with "Install on my devices".

    This will be followed with a menu to select which device to install it on and, after, a warning telling you the device has to be set to automatic game updates and so on.

    This is the only way currently available for those who got the game through GwG to download it again.

    If you're unlucky like me, this might not work because that method to install game is a hit-or-miss where remote installation is only working for 3 out of 5 Xbox One users and those who got it to work actually "own" the game already and not just through
    GwG as the game appears in the "Ready to Install" list afterward.

    The most insane part of this is that I purchased all the DLCs of for that game and I can't play it anymore. The DLCs are all in my purchase history, but not the main game. I learned from this that I should NEVER pay anything to Microsoft (like DLC) with
    it's involved with GwG.

    Don't Miss your FREE Stuff

    Anyone know how to free a game from gwg, then download it again to make it "owned by my gamertag". Example: Limbo was a gwg title. Because I downloaded under gwg it shows as ready to install. I want to purchase it for free, that way if gold ever drops I
    still own it. Is there some way to do that?

    Ready to Install issue

    Several months ago, I upgraded from an Xbox One to the One X. Since the upgrade, I've had issues with my Ready to Install games not showing under the Ready to Install section. I've downloaded every Games with Gold since the program started, but I'm only
    seeing approximately 12 of the most recent games under the GwG section.

    I have a 2 TB external hard drive and upon unplugging the external, my entire game library appears in Ready to Install. Upon plugging the external back in, all owned but not installed games are no longer visible. I made sure to change my viewing of Ready
    to Install and GwG sections from all storage devices. Suggestions?

    Regarding Assassin's Creed I GWG - error 0x803F8001

    https://www.xbox.com/en-US/live/games-with-gold?xr=shellnav

    I would try re-downloading your games with gold from the website instead off the console. I've never had this problem happen to me when it comes to GWG. Then check your xbox it should downloading or on the ready to instal list.

    360 games with gold on my Xbox one.

    Hiya Feral Frost!

    Unfortunately the ability to download 360 GWG on Xbox One isn't available yet. You will need to use a 360 or you can use the

    website
    to acquire the games license, then the games should appear in your "Ready to Install" list.
