Windows 10: I can't see UWP apps/games which I moved to my external HDD.

I recently decided to reset windows on my PC, and moved all the games/apps and files which I wanted to keep onto a WD Passport 2TB HDD. I moved games from Steam as well as a couple of UWP games. I moved the UWP apps onto the external HDD through the apps menu in settings. Post-reset, the steam games were easily moved back onto my internal HDD D Drive. The UWP apps, however, are not showing up on the apps menu in settings. I can see the WindowsApps folder in file explorer, and the folder takes up the correct amount of disc space for the apps/games I moved to it. Obviously I am unable to acces

external HDD

Hi,

Usually, this problem occur due to software incompatibility or corrupted USB drivers. For us to better assist you, we would like to clarify the following:

• Have you made any recent changes on your computer prior to the issue?
• Which driver did you uninstall? Have you reinstall the driver? If yes, how did you reinstall the driver?
• Have you check if the external HDD is visible in Device Manager?

If the issue still persists after uninstalling some games, we suggest that you run the troubleshooter for hardware and devices. If you're using the latest Windows 10 version, follow these steps on how to run the Hardware and Devices troubleshooter:

• Click the Start button and select the Settings
  icon.
• Choose Update & Security from the list.
• Click Troubleshoot in the left pane of the window.
• Under Find and fix other problems, select Hardware and Devices and click
  Run the troubleshooter.

We're looking forward to your reply.

 

UWP app live tiles not working

I did what you suggested, but after a while the tiles went to solid colors again.

 

Objects in UWP Games Appear Pink

For some reason, my UWP games show objects and backgrounds as pink in colour which really round the experience of the games. This issue is on many of the games I've tried. Please give suggestions to fix it.
