This game does not support advanced installation and management features

    I am playing for years through the Windows Store version (which is now also the GamePass version)

    This game is the only game on the Xbox app I can't move to another folder like every other game on the Xbox app.

    It would be nice if those management features can be enabled on the store/app in a next season so I can move the game to another folder in another drive.

    This feature was announced in 2021 and live for everyone since the beginning of 2022. It is a bit strange that a Microsoft owned studio doesn't use the latest available technology from their mother company. All other developers and publishers seem to use this feature in their games.

    The game is windows native application and as such the installation process is strongly bound with windows structure. Unfortunately, that prevents you from choosing a specific folder (security, rights, policies).
    However, you can choose the drive and you can even move already installed game - which I recommend if you got new SSD.
    See my other topic about it How to move installation to SDD. Which drive is Sea of Thieves installed on Windows 10 (MS store)
