It did not start downloading and I could not change the drive afterwards. So I had to go into my apps, delete all the connections to my account, deinstall the app, reinstall, let it install on C drive and now it is downloading. Approx. 2 GB downloaded while I was writing this... I had the very same problem. I reinstalled leaving the packages route at C drive. The game´s is in another drive. thank you!

I tried that now too, but I only have about 70GB free on my C drive (it's only an OS drive), so it wouldn't let me - even though the launcher is just 1gb.

Search results should appear below that and then just select Xbox and install. After it installs it will appear in your WIndows Apps list. Click on it in the Apps list and it will ask you to sign in. Use your Microsoft sign in credentials. Semper Fi
