I attempted to set up Sea of Thieves from the Microsoft store after already having it on my Xbox, but I needed it on a secondary SATA SSD rather than the BOOT NVME drive. The installation generated numerous Windows files and folders that weren’t related to the game, and even though I removed them, I still encounter issues when trying to delete certain directories with admin rights.

Open PowerShell, go to your directory, then run: rm ~\WindowsApps -recurse

Run the command to remove all items from the Windows Apps folder recursively and force the deletion, then navigate into the D:\ directory using PowerShell.

Yes, it typically works to run `rm .WindowsApps -recurse -force`.
