  1. Troubles installing game


    I decided to pick up Halo Wars 2 Complete Edition for PC, and upon trying to download, it gets stuck at 2%, no matter what I do. I've tried resetting Xbox and Microsoft Store apps, as well as gaming services. Not sure if it's worth mentioning, but Gaming Services is no longer in programs list, and I can't seem to complete the new update that showed up for it I keep getting an error message 0x80073CF9I've been installing games via the Xbox app, recently, so I'm not sure why I am suddenly having issues.

    :)

  2. installing a game

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
    We regret the inconvenience caused to you.


    Please try the steps given below and check if the issue persists:

    Step 1:

    I suggest you to right click on the game and try to run as administrator and check.

    Step 2: if that doesn't help I suggest you to install game in compatibility mode and check:

    Follow the steps below on how to install game in compatibility mode:

    1. Download the game from the manufacturer’s website and save it on your local disk.

    2. Right click on the setup file of the game and select “Properties”.

    3. Select “Compatibility” Tab.

    4. Place a check mark next to “Run this program in Compatibility mode” and select operating system from the drop down list.

    5. Let the game install and then check the functionality.

    Hope this helps.

    Thank you.

    Install Diablo 3 on Linux

    Just install PlayOnLinux? Why did they make step 2 and 3 of this "tutorial"?

    Anyway, looking at the supported software list for PlayOnLinux, D3 is a step in the right direction. Lack of gaming is a factor for a lot of people when deciding on an OS, if more recent games get ported it may help migrate them to their preferred choice.
