    Can not change where new content is saved.


    Hi


    I want to download Sea of Thieves SOT. When I try to install it to my E drive it says "This location isn't set up for installing games. Set it as you location for where new apps are saved" https://imgur.com/a/Kspbozu. When I click on that it takes me to the setting page "Change where new content is saved" System - Storage - Change where new content is saved https://imgur.com/a/cFCZtgA. Everything is going well so far, but when I try to change where "New apps will save to" it says, "We couldn't set your default save location." https://imgur.com/a/DlqKD8y.


    Anyone knows why this happens. The error code I get is 0x80070005.


    Sorry for any spelling mistakes or any grammar mistakes. I'm from Norway.
