  1. Cant play/download a purchased game


    I just recently brought forza horizon 4 for windows 10. I says I own it but when I click on install/play game it just links me back to the page to buy the game? Clicking on install to my device comes up with a box saying I dont have any compatible devices? Im getting a bit annoyed as it feels like been scammed by amazon and or microsoft store.


    Sorry If this is in the wrong section!

    :)

  3. can't play a game

    Hi,

    There are several reasons why you're encountering issues in playing games you've previously downloaded. One of these is when the account that owns the license of the game, is not signed in to the console. Kindly provide us the following information for us
    to determine the root cause:

    • Are you using the Microsoft account you've used to purchase the game?
    • Are you trying to access the game online or offline?
    • Is your device connected to a wired or a wireless network?
    • Have you made any changes to your device before encountering this issue?
    • Are you getting any error messages?
    You may follow the steps provided on this
    link
    on how to check your Xbox purchase history.

  4. Cant play/download a purchased game

    Downloading older previously purchased games

    Hi,



    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.



    I understand that you are facing issues with Windows 10. I apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.



    To assist you better, please provide the information:

    • Have you purchased the game through Windows Store?
    • When you say that "there no way to download to play offline", are you referring that you are not able to play the game in offline mode?

    From the above definition, seems like Microsoft Flight is online game where you need internet connection to play. Some games requires internet for accessing some information to load the game.



    Reply to us with the information, so that we can assist you better.

    Let us know if you need any further assistance on Windows related issues and we will be glad to help.
