    Uninstalled game taking up storage space on pc


    Hey,

    So i downloaded this game called "Naraka Bladepoint" from xbox gamepass and it didn't run, so i uninstalled it. After uninstalling i realized it still took disk space from my SSD. It didn't show in the xbox app neither in the file explorer. I have tried to reinstall it and remove it again but the same thing happened. I have also looked the temporary files, optimized my drives, used clean up exc. and read other threats about similar problems.

    If you do the math there is not 155 GB in those files.

    What should i do.

    :)

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today Pelireiska

    May I know if inside XboxGames folder you're able to see the Naraka folder?

    Or if you go to your installed apps via Windows settings, Naraka appears as installed? (Or open Windows menu and start typing Naraka, shows you a result?)

    I'll be waiting for your answers, greetings from another Microsoft user

    What about enabling hidden files?

    Did you tried using a third party program to clean possible cached files not detected by the regular system cleanup?

    Xbox game pass for PC - uninstalled games still take up storage space

    I uninstalled some games from my Xbox game pass (PC) using the uninstall option in the Xbox app (on PC).

    But the storage space in my SSD did not return to what it used to be, before the game was installed.

    We're talking about upwards of 10Gb. It can't be other files because the drive was solely for games.

    Anyone can help?
    cant wait to use it
