Windows 10: Unable to download, this app requires more space.

Hi,I recently purchased Forza Horizon 5 off the Microsoft Store and am experiencing issues with downloading. I want to download it on my D: drive, which has 300GB free, 200GB more than required. I have it set to install new apps and games on my D: drive in settings, yet I'm still getting the error saying that I have no storage available. I recently purchased a sufficient external drive for unrelated purposes, should I try installing there if possible?Cheers!

:)
