    Can't install games on my E: Drive


    Hi, I tried downloading Forza Horizon 4 again from my laptop it got reformatted and when I tried downloading it in my D: drive but when I selected my drive and I click on install i won't do anything and if I try downloading it in my C: drive it works. So I tried moving the file to my D: drive after it installed then i got presented by this error First Picure after I click on YES it gave me another error Second Picture. After that I tried change my directory for where new apps were save and it gave me the same error. Is there a way to fix it?

    Please try the steps given below and check if the issue persists:

    Step 1:

    I suggest you to right click on the game and try to run as administrator and check.

    Step 2: if that doesn't help I suggest you to install game in compatibility mode and check:

    Follow the steps below on how to install game in compatibility mode:

    1. Download the game from the manufacturer’s website and save it on your local disk.

    2. Right click on the setup file of the game and select “Properties”.

    3. Select “Compatibility” Tab.

    4. Place a check mark next to “Run this program in Compatibility mode” and select operating system from the drop down list.

    5. Let the game install and then check the functionality.

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you.
