Windows 10: Sharing Windows Store app installation with other users

Hi all,

I can't believe I'm asking something that should be very simple but I've played around and Googled it and I can't find any answers.

On my account I bought Forza Horizon a while ago through the Windows Store. I've now set up child accounts for my kids on the same PC that Forza is installed on and I want them to have access to the game too.

I've managed to sign in to the Microsoft Store using my account on their profiles so I can see that I've bought the game, but the store wants me to install the full game - 80gb - for each account, so in essence I'd have the game installed 3 times. Surely there must be a way to share the game's files and just have individual user data?

Thanks in advance!

Windows Store to Pack "Mature" Games and Apps

They announce this right after they said weren't going to carry any of it... Ya think some investors told them to stfu and take money? *Laugh :laugh:

I wonder how long it will be before you can't install noncertified apps? The app store is the 1st stepping stone. Although, you'd have to be an idiot to give 30% to these clowns.
