Unable to Install games in the SD card after upgrade to build 10586.420.

Hi Sanjay,

To assist you better, please provide us with the below information;

• 
  Which Games are you trying to save in SD card?
  
• 
  When you said “But in this digital d drive no games are saving” did you mean installing the game?
  
• 
  Were you able to save the games in the previous build?
  
• 
  Are you getting any error messages? If yes, please specify.
  

If you are referring to the games from Windows Store, I suggest you to make the changes in the Storage Settings and then install the game. Follow the below steps to choose the storage option as SD card for New Apps installed.

• 
  Connect the SD Card.
  
• 
  Open the Settings from your
  Start menu.
  
• 
  Navigate to System >
  Storage in the Settings app. If you have an SD card inserted, you should see it in the list of drives at the top of the screen.
  
• 
  Scroll down and click or tap the
  “New apps will save to” option under Save locations. Select your SD card or another drive here and click “Apply”.
  
• 
  Now, go to the Windows Store and install an app like you normally would. Windows will install that app to the SD card.
  

If you are referring to installing a game from CD or other storage device, or from any set up file you already have, then select the SD card as the storage location while installing the game (You should get a window asking where to save the installed
files on the starting of the installation).



If you were able to install the games in the previous build and the Installation in SD card does not work on the new build, you can try going back to the previous build and check if you can install the game. To remove an update, please follow the below
steps;

• Select the Start button, then select
  Settings > Update & security >Windows Update
  > Advanced options > View your update history
  > Uninstall updates.
• Select the update you want to remove, and then select
  Uninstall.

Hope you can install the game in the SD card.

SD card not showing in store

The SD card is not showing in the store. The official tutorial on the Microsoft website (http://www.windowsphone.com/en-US/How-to/wp8/apps/how-do-i-install-apps-from-an-sd-card)

states:

To install apps and games from your phone's SD card

• 
  Insert an SD card that contains one or more .XAP files into your phone.
  
• 
  On Start
  
  , tap
  Store
  
  , and then tap
  SD card.
  
  Note
  
  If you've just inserted the SD card or added the .XAP files, you might need to wait a few minutes before you can access your SD card from the Store.
  
• 
  Select the apps you want, and then tap Install.
  

However, the problem, and thus the source of this question resides in step number 2. "Tap SD card" is not possible, as the option to do so does not exist within the store. Perhaps this clarifies the question.

 

Installing apps from SD card on Lumia 620

Lumia 620 has a SD card slot. I have downloaded certain apps on PC (.xap files) and am trying to install the same on my Lumia 620. However, I am not able to view "SD card" when I am in the "Store" (as mentioned in step 2 below) and so cannot install
the apps.

Can anyone please suggest any solution?
