    I tried to get an game called Roblox. It says I owned it, but I can't launch it, and it only says "offers in app purchases". I've also tried to reset Microsoft store. Nothing worked. How do you fix this?

  2. Launching games

    Hi Wesley,

    Windows 10 is gamer-friendly by design. If an issue like being unable to launch a game happens, it can be caused by outdated display driver or other factors that cause conflict when launching the app. For us to better assist you, we'd like to ask for additional
    information. Please answer the following:

    • What build and version of Windows 10 are you using?
    • Are you getting an error message when launching the game?
    • Have you made any changes to the settings or installed updates prior to this issue?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    • What specific games are you having issues with?

    We will wait for your response.

    Previously purchased Scrabble Game

    Hi Willie,

    Let's try to isolate the issue so that we could find your Scrabble game. Normally, the game should automatically be downloaded to your computer after purchasing it. Can you tell us if the game app appear in the
    Desktop window? Also, can you check if it also shows up on the list of apps from
    Start?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you open Windows Store app on your computer, and go to
    My Library. From there, please check if the game shows up and if you can be able to launch it from there.

    We look forward to your reply.

    I own a game but I can't launch it. It only says that they offer in app purchases.

    download seemed fine, however cannot launch app

    I purchased Bejeweled 2 (credit card charged, shows up on PC under purchase history) from Marketplace app on my phone (Omnia II Mobile 6.5)

    I successfully purchased free apps prior to making this purchase.

    On my phone Bejeweled shows up in Marketplace "rate an app" list, "remove an app" list but not "launch an app" list.

    I've removed and reinstalled, no change. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
