  1. Gears 5 disappeared from my pc and I can't reinstall it


    After trying to download the latest update Operation 4: brothers in arms, Microsoft store warned me that there was a problem and that the installation was cancelled. So I tried to download it again, but on my pc there was no trace left of the whole game.

    I couldn't find it on the search bar nor even in the hidden folder WindowsApps.

    Now I can't reinstall the entire game because Microsoft Store still thinks it is installed, I can only downaload an update that never starts because the game is not there...

    I really don't know what to do, can someone Please help me?

    Thank you in advance

    :)

  3. GEARS OF WAR 5 INSTALL ISSUE can anyone fix?

    Environment

    - Win10 Pro / 1905 with XGP subscription

    Repro Steps

    - Start downloading Gears5

    - Taking a while, so rebooted a couple times and resume downloaded

    - Download completed and got notification toast says "Gears 5 just got installed, check it out"

    Symptom

    - In start menu, Gears 5 shows up with down arrow icon. More sub-menu only has 2 items (clear list and remove from the list)

    - On same start menu item, right click uninstall, doesn't do anything, but removing down arrow icon. (file still exist in my SSD. C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\MSIXVC\1E66A3E7-2F7B-461C-9F46-3EE0AEC64B8C, full 60 Gig space)

    - In XBox (Beta) app, Nothing listed under left side of pane, all, installed, queue, nor needs attention section

    - In Xbox (beta) app, find gears 5, then installation button shows up, Click the button will cause the windows notification, says got installed.. (gives down arrow icon on start menu, and goes into infinate loop)

    - There's nothing in apps & features under settings

    - CANNOT even manually delete C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\MSIXVC\1E66A3E7-2F7B-461C-9F46-3EE0AEC64B8C, guessing from the size and file date, I'm quite sure it's Gear 5.

    Now, it just taking up 60 Gig of my SSD, can't delete, can't play, can't move, can't reinstall, can't anything.

    It's a P1 issue, please, escalate to the dev team.
