  1. State of Decay 2 created an empty ModifiableWindowsApps in secondary drive after installation


    I have a laptop with a 500 GB SSD C drive for windows and games and a 2TB HDD for other stuff D drive.


    After installing State of Decay 2 from the store today, I notice that there is an empty folder "D:\Program Files\ModifiableWindowsApps" in my D drive. After taking ownership of the folder and deleting it, the folder is created again after reboot.


    I uninstall SoD 2 and delete the folder again, it isn't re-created anymore so the game is the problem here.


    How can I get rid of the empty folder in my D dirve?

    :)

    Click My Library

    Scroll through the list then click the State of Decay 2 app if its listed there, then click the download button.

  3. State of Decay 2 preload

    Hey,

    I couldn't quite figure it out either. When I first downloaded via MS Store, it completed a small download (Around 20mb) and seemed to install the State of Decay icon in the Start Menu.

    Whenever I would launch that it would come up with an alert stating that "You're trying too early".. but it never fully downloaded the game content.

    I went and tried again tonight and looked under "Downloads and Updates" within Microsoft store (top right corner click on the ***. Then clicked on State of Decay 2 in the list, and on the SoD2 page that comes up, there was a button that said "Update".

    Clicked on that, and now its downloading the game content (18gb+).

    Hope this helps!

    State of Decay 2 game install gets stuck at 70% "installing" or "Downloading".

    Hi DuckierLattice,

    Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    Appreciate your efforts to work on this issue.

    I can understand the situation must be difficult for you when the system doesn't work as it should.

    Please answer these questions to get more clarity on this issue.

    1. Are you aware of any changes made to the PC prior to this issue?
    2. Is the issue specific to State of Decay 2?
    3. Which security software is installed on the PC?
    4. Does the issue occur in a different user account?
    5. What is the free space available on the PC?

    However, let us try these methods one by one to check if that helps.

    Method A: The antivirus program or security software might be interfering with the Store, try disabling it 'temporarily' to see if that helps.

    Note: Enable security software after the troubleshooting so that the PC is safe and secure.

    You may also want to download this game directly from the browser to check if that helps.

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/p/s...activetab=pivot:regionofsystemrequirementstab

    Method B: Suggest you to refer to the steps provided by ‘Andre Da Costa’ from
    this thread
    to check if that helps.

    Hope this helps and let us know how it goes.

    Regards,
