    Downloading movies bought in Microsoft Store?

    Hello Nick, sorry about your problems. My name is Marco and I will do my best to help you.

    Yes, you should be able to download movies that you have purchased from the Microsoft Store as MP4 files or other file types onto your hard drive.

    To download a movie from the Microsoft Store:

    -Go to the Microsoft Store and sign in with your Microsoft account.

    -Navigate to the movie that you want to download and click on it to open the movie's page.

    -Click the "Buy" or "Rent" button to purchase or rent the movie. If you have already purchased the movie, the button will say "Play."

    -After the purchase is complete, the movie will be added to your Microsoft Store library.

    -To download the movie, click on the movie's cover art in your library to open the movie's page.

    -Click the "Download" button to start the download process.

    -Select the desired file type and quality for the download.

    -Choose a location on your hard drive to save the downloaded file.

    -Click the "Save" button to begin the download.
