Windows will try to autoupdate these games on its own (even though I have turned off auto updating in like four different locations in Windows). So far five games have failed (Wasteland 3, Crusader Kings 3, Grounded, Tell me Why and Minecraft Dungeons).
I am on my fifth reinstall of Windows, and have about 25 Gamepass games installed. I had a similar issue with Ori last year which I eventually managed to solve but cannot remember how. There is something about the G Drive that it is not liking despite being the location of the only two games i have installed through Gamepass for over a year without issues. Humankind and other new installs do not have this whilst downloading. I am assuming that Windows thinks Sea of Theives is still installed somewhere because in the start menu it shows as a new app at the top of the list and has a download bar. Sea of Theives will still not install anywhere but C and D still. I set my E drive as preferred location for app installs and Humankind seems happy enough as do other games. In the process I find that I cannot install anything (even Humankind) to my G Drive and even my E Drive. After reading through various topics I take full ownership of all Windows apps folders, set the G drive as primary install location for windows apps, rename windowsapps folder and wpsystem foler to. Try to install it to both C and D Drives and the download starts (i do not want it installed here for capacity and speed reasons). Try to install it to my E Drive with the same issue.
Uninstalled Sea of Thieves and tried to redownload thinking it was a botched update but have the same issue. All is going fine when I notice that an update for Sea of Thieves gets added to the queue but it fails to download with error 0x8007005. Yesterday i decide to download Humankind. I had Sea of Thieves and Gears Tactics installed to the G Drive.
