xbox device portal file explorer

Download the onedrive app on your device and import the photo to file explorer

The file explorer app was not a Microsoft product and violated TOS

Do you refer to the file explorer with the package name c5e2524a-ea46-4f67-841f-6a9465d9d515_cw5n1h2txyewy ?

Because this package is the built in file explorer on all non desktop windows devices. So I am pretty sure it can’t violate TOS. Also as long as you use the public (in ms store whitelisted APIs) to build a third party file explorer you are good to go.

I think that they removed the file explorer and the download feature because some people were using such features to mod or see files that they’re not supposed to see or access.

This was not possible. The “lite” version of the file explorer you could see on the xbox had limited access by intention. The file explorer is 1:1 the same as the Mobile file explorer and it allows you access to external drives and your user’s folder (Downloads, Pictures, Videos, “3D Objects”, Documents, etc).

It giver nor administrative privileges nor access to MainOS or Data. The values for this live in the registry and could be changed but it’s unlikely you can ever change the registry on an xbox. People have done it on the Lumia devices and it can give you C: or “This PC” access but not with administrative privileges.

The xbox games are saved in the cloud of your account, so regardless of being a pc or another console, you can have access to the same save, since it is Play Anywhere, as the location of the content on the pc, I do not know where you can find .

Hi there,

Yes that means that your FH4 data is saved to your Xbox account. Data files are saved locally on the device (PC) but Xbox Live also has a cloud storage that backs up your game data as long as you are connected to Xbox Live.

As long as you are signed into the Xbox app and connected to Xbox Live, your data should be backed up to your account as well from the cloud.

Let us know if you have any other questions.
