    Please, try clearing some space and try again.

    When a game/app is being installed, it gets expanded due to files being uncompressed.

    This will increase the installation file described on the store download page.

    How much space do you have free? What drive are you trying to install it to?

    Quantum break is 42GB game. Even if you've got 50GB it may still not work as downloading can need extra storage as part of the decompression process of a game install.

    I would also avoid using up all of your storage on the OS drive as this will not only prevent Windows being updated, it will prevent other games and apps from updating too.

    I am sorry to hear it.

    Have you tried to run a system scan?

    Please, open the Terminal window and type in: sfc /scannow

    If any error is found, follow the prompts to fix it.

    Let me know if it works!
