    Reinstalling Halo 5 Forge after Windows reinstall


    I have reinstalled windows on my PC and already have Halo 5: Forge downloaded on my PC. I can actually navigate to the folder it is installed to. When I go to the app store to try to reinstall it, the store begins to download the whole game over again. Is
    there a way to simply point the app store to the install location and have it recognise the game? I have already tried the suggestions listed on Microsoft support here & here as
    well as asking the official 343 support forums with no answers. The actual Microsoft forums are a joke too and they just pointed me back here so here I am.

    I have tried installing other apps although not games and same thing, appstore forces me to redownload.

    The game is installed to my D: drive D:\WindowsApps. I cant select my D: drive as the storage location for new windows apps without having to delete the current apps that are on that drive. What kind of a design flaw is this???

    Will moving the app to an external harddrive, then changing the the install location and moving it over back once its changed work?

    :)

    Xbox app wont open.

    I was trying to transfer Halo 5 Forge on PC, and ended up changing my security properties on the WindowsApps folder. After I changed this, every time I try to open the Windows Store, Xbox App, Halo 5 Forge or Halo wars 2, the app just starts to load and
    then closes right away.

    anyone else getting lots of random freezes after the update? The forge dlc played fine but on the normal map my game is freezing when picking up caches and on murals. Tried deleting reserved space and also full reinstall but still the same issue.

    Halo Infinite

    Not GOLD FOR FORGE like halo 5. And spawn enemies of the campaign in forge.

    Xbox App stopped launching some games, and gives error 0x00000001 when trying to install new games. And Microsoft Store acting strange.

    After reinstalling windows, it finally works! Installing and launching games, including Halo Infinite!

    Thank you for the support and the time.

    Have a great day!

    Halo 5: Guardians profile sync error

    The same thing happened to me recently, try to refresh/reinstall your profile. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling Halo 5.

    Xbox app wont open.

    Hi,

    There are several reasons why Windows Store, Xbox App, Halo 5 Forge or Halo wars 2 will crash on start up. Have you attempted any troubleshooting steps yet?

    Regards.
