  1. How to tell if I purchased a Game/DLC for my Windows 10 PC or my Xbox?


    This has been baffling me for the past few days. As my title states I am trying to find out how I can tell what I am about to purchase from Microsoft's website.


    I purchased "The Outer Worlds" back on October 29th 2019 for my Windows 10 PC.

    On March 15th 2021 I saw that the Expansion Pass for The Outer World was on sale, I open the Microsoft Store and open the page for The Outer Worlds: Expansion Pass. I then proceeded to carefully inspect the sales page for any indication whether or not this was for my PC or my Xbox which I do not own the game for. after looking for over an hour I came to the conclusion that I'm logged into my microsoft account and It should be the DLC for the System PC that I own the Game for.

    So I made my Purchase.

    Everything looks fine above, but when I go to Install the expansion pass and it is prompting me to install on my Xbox and NOT my PC.

    I look over the product page and I see NOTHING saying whether or not this is for PC or XBOX.

    I see under Installation "Install on your Windows 10 Device", but as I previously stated It will only allow me to install this on my xbox..

    NOWHERE on this page does it state what system I am actually purchasing this for. Also looking at the order details yet again, there are no identifying details at all regarding the system that I purchased the game dlc for.


    Both my Xbox and my Microsoft Account share the same email, It just makes no sense.


    I am at a loss, I just don't understand. How would I go about getting this installed on my PC?


    Maybe Microsoft/Xbox shouldn't have separate titles and just merge their content for ease of access, but I'm just some guy who likes to play games so what I know.


    I Don't Even Know What Category To Put This Under...

  2. Are you able to use a Xbox Gift Card to pay for games and DLC's on Xbox360

    NOTE: About Xbox 360

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    I am confused by one thing on the Xbox gift card info page and it is that it says
    • You can’t use the Xbox gift card to purchase content from the Xbox 360 Marketplace or Xbox 360 content on the Xbox One.
    So if I wanted to buy a game, say Goat Simulator, could I do it on the marketplace? Or will I need to buy it off of the Xbox website, then download the game onto the Xbox. Please answer as I don't want to waste $25 and not be able to get a game and its DLC's
    (Game= $10 Every DLC=$5) On Xbox 360

  3. windows live dlc

    I did as suggested but Fable 3 is only listed in the xbox version. I have both xbox 360 and xbox one and fable 3 along with dlc works on the consoles with no problem. I have the pc version on disc and that is what I downloaded to my windows 10 pc. I
    am able to play the game but when I go to the store there is no connection to windows live. It tells me I previously downloaded these dlc's and I did on my old windows 7 computer, but there appears to be no connection to windows live available and no way
    to recover my old downloads (my old pc is long gone). I am able to play so I suppose that I will be limited to playing without the "extrs"

    It is possible that you can
