Seems the installer can be fooled, but not the license tool. So close, yet so far away ... Get the xbox gamepass and try. Its like 1 usd if you are new, and like 4 bucks if you aren't. That should work. Andreas Stangenes http://www.youtube.com/user/krsans78 Add me on gamertag: Bullhorns78

I got it to work through the Game Pass app. My issue was that while I did change my region, I forgot to change the time zone and date/time to the 18th. Once I did all of that, it worked. (Well, it is downloading 91.36 gigabytes in any case.)

August 17, 20205 yr You people should calm down and have more patience. Who knows what technical difficulties you may bring upon yourselves. Not to mention that it's defying the licensing agreement.

All I can say is that I was getting an error message -- even after rebooting -- when only my region was changed, and that it worked as expected once I also changed the time and time zone (though I have no way of knowing if it was the time or the time zone or both that fixed it for me). I would suggest just changing the region and then using my method if that doesn't work. But do set a reminder with Alexa or whatever you use to change all this back tomorrow. 🙂

And if I was any more calm, I'd lack a pulse. 😉 Edited August 17, 20205 yr by SeanMo

Nor do I need to calm down. 😉 I don't understand the mentality though. One day is nothing. Why not do it as and when the developer intended? At 62 I've learnt many times that to rush in headlong is often a mistake. You are of course entitled to do what you want.

I don't understand the mentality of gatekeeping people's excitement either, coming into threads telling people to be patient when they can access something they've been waiting for right now, of course simmers will be joining in.
