    Where to install apps


    I've recently bought an xbox game pass ultimate allowing me to a multitude of games (as well as some perks) however, my puny laptop does not have enough space for such games. I have an external drive, however, and I want to change the location where my
    apps are saved, but in doing so I must delete my apps, and I kinda don't want to delete everything. Is there a way to switch to my external just for these xbox games? Maybe in a new profile? Or anything so I don't have to delete my original apps?

    :)

    O dont think you have to delete apps to move them . 🤔 you should be able to move them to a formatted hard drive . 👍
