Can we install the game on D: already? (PC)

    I managed to get enough space on C: to install Sea Of Thieves but with this update it's getting really tight.

    Did anyone reinstall/entered during this beta and put it on any disk that isn't C:?

    @cafe1918 If you're on PC you can specify the location of the game in Settings - System - Storage options.

    If you have a genuine updated copy of Windows 10 installed then you have to install it on the drive that Windows is installed. This is one of the downsides to the beta relying on your microsoft credentials to play.

    @phillyreid My Windows is on the C: drive but I installed the game to my F: drive.

    @odinresurrected Maybe your Windows 10 isn't up to date? (according to what @PhillyReid says)

    @cafe1918 I've installed it on F: and was able to launch it and go through the sign-in permission screens. All of my Windows 10 games are installed on the F: drive. Never had issues.

    Version 1709
    OS Build 16299.192

    Maybe re-install and it will let you choose another drive now?

    @robot-god If you are on PC then open your Windows Store app on your computer and on the top right bring down a drop down menu and click "My Library" and it should be there. Bare in mind they did say "Approx 24 hours before" so dont panic just yet if it isnt there. Same goes for Xbox

    @phillyreid I still cant find it but thanks at least now i know where to look ... will update once i see link of if it sea it at all! ha!

    @phillyreid Can you provide a link, I have never downloaded a game on the windows store. It says I'm on the windows store and signed in, but I don't see a my library option on the top right, so it makes me think I'm in the wrong place. Thank you in advance.

    My issue is that I see it but it only says it's available on xbox one. This was the beta I was looking forward to since I just play on my PC like 99% of the time now :( I've been in since one of the earlier alpha waves and did get an invite to this one, I can download the beta to my Xbox but I can't figure out where the pc download is.

    @madame-ching On your PC, on the taskbar there is a search bar. Type in "Microsoft Store" Open that up. On the top right of that window you will see a few vertical dots. click that and you will see you "My Library" option

    Don't worry about it mate, it WILL for a fact be on PC because in the news section of our lovely website it says that the closed beta actually includes the Xbox play anywhere feature!
