Xbox app for PC won't let me select a drive to install a game

Figured out the fix... Repair and Reset the data for the Gaming Services app from inside of settings

Hi Juliano Klein Tweedie,

Sorry for the issue. I will try my little best to help you as a fellow gamer.

Try changing the default location for new apps in Windows to your preferred HDD location and then try installing the game again.

Go to Settings -> System -> Storage -> Change where new content is saved (under 'More Storage Settings'). Change the setting "New Apps will install to:" to the drive you want to use.

Make sure you have some free space on your drive. If not, try cleaning up your disk to create more space.

Post back if you need more help.

Regards,

I'm currently having the same issue... Changed the drive in the settings page as recommended above and issue is still persisting.

Hi there!

Thanks for the quick reply.

I tried doing that, but it didn't work.

Another thing that happens is that I bought the Minecraft Dungeons Hero Edition. When I try to install it, it opens the Microsoft Store tab. I click on Install and nothing happens.

Any other options on how to solve this mistery?

Thanks in advance!

So after uninstallig Gaming service and Xbox, reinstalling it nothing changed. I went ahead and tried installing the game on my C drive and it would download. so I started searching for "Xbox won't install on D Drive" and found



Xbox (Beta) app don't download on D drive

[table][tr][td]Bos Nuka Knight:Hello, sorry to hear your having problems. Try the following for a fix and let me know if you have any luck.

• When starting the game installation from the Xbox (Beta) app you have the option of changing where content will be stored by selecting the hard drive you want to install to. If you see the message “Selected drive is not set up to install games,” your drive is not provisioned and installation access is denied. To fix this:
  • Either select the link under the message to go to Settings, or press the Windows key and selecting Settings > System > Storage. Select Change where new content is saved.
  • Using the menu under Where apps will be saved to, choose the drive you want.

after changing this setting Xbox no longer gives me the option to install on C drive witch is fine but will now install on my D Drive.
