    Trying to download Halo Wars 2 (Play Anywhere) on my pc crashes the Windows Store app


    I have a Microsoft Surface Book 2 with the dedicated GPU running Windows 10 with the latest build and all updates installed.

    I purchased Halo Wars 2 via my console.

    When I pull it up via the Windows 10 store app, I get the green button "Install" I press it and about 5 seconds later the Windows Store app crashes. It never downloads.

    Rebooted. Checked for more updates. All looks good.

    Any ideas?

    :)

  2. Halo Wars 2 trouble

    I bought an xbox one that came with a disc copy of halo wars 2 ultimate edition and a digital copy of halo wars definitive edition. On the windows store, it says that I own halo wars definitive edition and all of halo wars 2's dlc, yet it does not give me
    the option to download halo wars 2 on pc. I thought halo wars 2 was an xbox play anywhere game? Do I have to have it fully installed on the xbox for it to work?

  3. error downloading title

    Recently bought halo wars 2 on my pc with windows 10 to use the play anywhere function but now I cant download it on my personal xbox or the friend I game share with. Really confused why buying it on the Microsoft store and not the xbox store would mess
    it up. Anyone have an inkling to know why?

    Can you download the game to a Flash SDHC card inserted into the Surface Pro 3?

    I found I can download it, but it won't play and get error. I had to install Halo Wars 2 Definitive Edition on the hard drive of the Surface Pro 3. then it worked. is that normal?

  7. I have an i7,16Gb Surfacebook with performance base and the store tells me it wont work on my device. I find that really hard to believe. I cant force the store to let me download it either. Feeling ripped off here.

    can't install xbox play anywhere games on my pc

    There are only a handful of games that are both on Game Pass and Play Anywhere titles. You can view the list of Play Anywhere games here

    Halo Wars 2 is a Play Anywhere game, but people have had issues with downloading the game. In the image you posted, it looks like it's trying to find a console, not your PC. Are you trying to download it from the Windows Store?
