xbox insider no advanced features section

Hi Zephire14! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

Apps are required to be in that folder in order to work and in any drive you want to install games the folder will be created to install the games, if you wanna modify the files in the folder you have to take ownership of the folder, you can do that following this steps

That's going to be changing very soon. In fact, users can easily sign up to be an insider for the Xbox App and test out the new up-coming installation features that will eventually be available to all users by default.

Advanced Installation and Management Features available for Insiders through the Xbox App for Windows

Without enabling the advanced install features, the default install folder is the encrypted 'WindowsApps' folder. This folder is encrypted and protected, changing the ownership will have no effect on this.

The insiders advanced features option can install supported games to any directory, and unlike the WindowsApps folder, these directories are not protected. Supported games are ones where 'Administration approval required for installation' is listed on the download screen.

I would recommend adding this to the feature request section of the insiders subreddit https://www.reddit.com/r/XboxInsiders/wiki/xboxrequests

Hello Dom,

Try to reset the Xbox Insider Hub.

Open the Windows Settings with the help of the keyboard shortcut or the gear icon on the left panel of the Start menu.

Go into the Apps settings tile on the Settings main page by clicking on it.

Locate Xbox Insider Hub in the list of apps and expand it by clicking on it.

Choose the Advanced options link, under the Xbox Insider section.

Find the Reset button and click on it.

The above issue occurred on a fresh install of Windows 11 Pro.

I was able to "fix" the issue by unenrolling from Xbox Insider Hub's Windows Gaming. I then uninstalled the Xbox app. I restarted my machine. I then re-enrolled back in the Windows Gaming Preview. I reinstalled the Xbox App. I still had the same error, so I unchecked the option to "Ask me for install options on every install." Game Pass Games now install as normal rather than the advanced options under C:\Xbox Games.

Identifying the issue was seeing the option "This game supports advanced management features." on the 7 games that were already installed.

In conclusion,

I believe this is some sort of Xbox Insider Hub Preview issue with the Xbox App because the 7 games were installed without the option of C:\Xbox Games that I had prior to reloading Windows 11.

Hi there!

I believe the ability to stream to Windows 10 is an Xbox Preview feature, and therefore must be discussed in the Xbox One Preview Forums on the Windows 10 Insider Section.
