    Can't delete windowapps folder on my computer. Just came to a new computer and xbox beta didn't recognize the games. Need some help here.

    I've tried uninstalling, reinstalling, changing folder permissions; nothing seems to work.

    you cant transfer windows games from one machine to another.

    go to settings, system, storage, change where new content it saved, then change the top one where apps are saved, select the drive where the windowsapps folder is, it will say its not empty and it will then want to erase everything in there, you have to
    do this or you wont be able to save games to that drive.

    Microsoft dont do things like the other services out there and the folders are encrypted to the windows install, if you move machine or re install windows you will have to download the lot again.

    There is a way of removing the folder but does mean delving into deeper security settings and manually taking ownership, then removing all other owners/users of the folder and taking full control just to delete the folder, you can google this and follow
    some very good indepth guides.

    I have had to do this a few times in the past.

    Not letting me do anything

    Hey there Kalyri,

    This is something you'll need to talk with Phone support about. You can contact a billing agent at 1-800-4MY-XBOX.

    Make sure to mention to them that you have the Entertainment for All plan.

    Let us know how things go.

    Xbox wont let me do anything....

    The only other suggestion I may have for you is to do a hard reset on your console. Hold the lit up x icon on the front of your console unroll the console shuts down give it a few seconds and turn your console back on and you should get the green startup
    screen. Let it go through the motions of starting back up and see if that fixes your problem. Please let us know if any of this has helped you.

    Hello shaunstewart2,

    Thank you for posting on Xbox Forums. In regards to this issue, have you tried to restart your router for five minutes? You will need to unplug the router for five minutes and then plug it back in. After which you will need to
    Power Cycle the console and then test the network connection. Rebooting your router might solve any network issues the console might
    be experiencing. If rebooting the router does not work you will have to
    Reset the Console to Factory Defaults
    to try and resolve this issue.

    If you have any other questions please feel free to reply back letting us know. Thank you again for posting on Xbox Forums.
