Windows 10: Microsoft Store Download Locations

Recently I have decided to re-install ARK: Survival Evolved on my computer through the Microsoft store.

However, it stopped after about 200MB/105GB because there wasn't enough space on my C: Drive.

So I went into Settings, System, Storage, Change where new content is saved. I then changed all to D: Drive.

I then attempted to re-install the game again, but it still comes up with ERROR and that I don't have enough storage.

Please help.


Yours Sincerely,

Downloading is Slow from Store.

Hi Mihir,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

Follow the steps below:

• Press Windows logo key + R.
• Type wsreset.exe on Run window and press enter.
• Check if issue persists.

You may try the following steps and check:



Step 2:

Try to run the sfc scan and check if the Windows store downloads faster:

Run a System File Checker (SFC) scan to check for any file corruption.
SFC scan will scan for corrupt system files on the computer and repair them.

• Press Windows key + X, click
  Command Prompt (Admin).
• In the Command Prompt, type the following command, and then press ENTER:
  
  sfc /scannow

Hope this would help. If issue still persists post back with current status of your computer and result of the proposed suggestion, we’ll be glad to assist you.
