Installing to a second Drive. D: or external (Non Boot up Drives)

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand your concern as you are looking for an option to move the game location from the C drive to the Drive D, which is an external drive.



In this scenario, we would suggest you to perform these steps and check if that resolves your issue on both laptop and Desktop.

1. As usual install the game on the PC’s in
   C Drive.
   
2. Insert the external
   D drive to the PC.
   
3. Press Windows + I key from the keyboard to launch
   Settings.
   
4. Select Apps and click on
   Apps & features from the left pane.
   
5. Search for the installed game from the list on the right pane.
   
6. Single click on the game and select
   Move.
   
7. Select the D drive under
   Choose a drive where you want to move the game.
   
8. Restart the PC with the external drive connected and then launch the game.

We await your response.

Move Game to a different account.

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



To isolate your concern with the Game, we would need some information.

1. May I know from where did you purchase this Game?
   
2. Is this an Xbox or a PC Game?
   
3. What is the name of the Game you want to move?
   

If the game is linked to an incorrect Microsoft account, suggest you to contact
