Question about buying from xbox for pc.


Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone

 

As I wasn't sure if my pc could handle the new sim I went for the option of buying a game pass for xbox for pc. It turns out that it runs quite well (and I'm sure even better with an upgrade from 8 to 16 GB) so I now want to buy it. On game pass I couldn't download and install without first encrypting the destination drive. My question is: will I have any problems after buying it if I go ahead and remove the encryption? I used Vera Crypt to do the encryption.

Encryption? I’ve never done that. No problems here. Maybe it’s something to do with your drive?

It is to do with the drive, earlier this year I had to change a couple of BIOS settings to enable UEFI and disk encryption before I could update Windows 10 to version 2004.
