(XBOX Game Pass for PC) I can't access the Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord's main game files

Kerem K. · Apr 18, 2023

**As like in the title, I can't access to the main game files of Mount & Blade II: Bannerlord's main game files from XBOX app. I tried various ways I found on the Internet, I couldn't do it. The game is on disk D, that is the only thing I can see about the game files' location, but when I click Explore; nothing happens. I went to the location that I installed the game manually, and the folder was invisible.

In the tutorials that I saw, the people were able to go to the location by clicking Explore. But as I said, nothing happens when I click to that button. How can I see the main game files of the game? (I uninstalled and reinstalled game services, I uninstalled and reinstalled the game, I got access to some administrator files stuff, nothing worked.)

the game installs to an encrypted folder called windowsapps, if you take ownership it will break the protection and most of the time will fail to load the game, this is microsofts form of drm.

I would ignore microsoft support in general. They're pretty useless. The reason you can't find it is because the gamepass version uses a different file system than Steam. Game pass version does not have a direct installation location as it seems they split the game files into multiple folders that are conglomerated together with a launcher file. The closest you'll get to an actual game file is (install drive) >Xbox Games>Mount & Blade II-Bannerlord>Content>gamelaunchhelper

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

If I may ask, is this happening with all of your games or just for a specific game?
