MS store on Win10 doesn't use normal x86 app structure & encrypts the files you download, unlike say steam or even EGS's download.

Some practical stuff that affects users:
  • Say you installed a game in 2nd partition & formatted OS, you won't be able to easily discover the game via MS store/Xbox. You can't delete it directly as well, there's a way to do it though.
  • Pause & resume sucks. Found this recently as I have a 40GB/day limit BB at hometown & I have tried downloading FH4 (90+GB) multiple times. I lost data, time & my energy trying to download it. Once the download was done till 65GB & it just couldn't resume.

Did you find any solution for this?? @omega44-xt @bssunilreddy I am trying to download fh4 but i cannot resume download and i cant download in one go due to bandwith limitations Any way to download with resume?? xbox app really sucks alot specially its download manager.
@bssunilreddy are you able to resume pause downloads? because for me on resume its starting from scratch.
Any more game pass users here?

You can download the game from Microsoft store also.

Faced the same issue with game pass tried to download 150GB over week, but game was never 100% downloaded. Gave up. Bought the game on steam later. Didn't have any issue on steam.

You can try wsreset. It will reset the windows store delete cache and you will have to download again from beginning.

You are right steam is so much better!! Its better to buy from steam than getting a headache from game pass.
PS: Tried to download over ms store too but still facing similar problems not able to resume download and its very buggy.
Why ms cannot implement a good download manager idk.
Feeling ripped for mere 59 rs too Game pass is surely not worth it.

MS should use the so called "win32" apps in MS store. Win11 rumours are intensifying, I hope MS drops the UWP shit.

Me too hoping the same that MS drop this UWP shit in upcoming Windows 11.
Which will be helpful in resuming the download of games like in other gaming Downloader from Steam, Ubisoft & Epic Games etc.
