    Sea of Thieves keeps downloading onto my SSD


    This is an ongoing issue for years now, every now and again the game Sea of Thieves appears on my SSD taking up room on my memory, I have to keep checking to see if it appears, its acting like a virus. Trying to contact microsoft about it has been hell ive been on the phone a few times about it. Last time they said to change my microsoft password and apparently that would stop it. It did not, it is still appearing on my SSD taking up room and I just want it gone and to never return

    :)

    I cannot download Sea of Thieves on PC from microsoft store.

    Hi Christopher,

    Sorry for the delayed response. We identified this issue regards downloading Sea of Thieves from Windows Store App and we still working on it to fix the problem. As a workaround, we suggest following the steps below:

    • Cancel all existing download on the Store app.
    • Start the download of Sea of Thieves once again.
    • As soon as the download starts, immediately restart the computer.
    • After the reboot, do not launch the Store app instead wait for the passive download which you can check in the Action Center. Then it will automatically install by itself and then open the game without any issues.

    For any results, please let us know.
