I installed a game yesterday and had to uninstall it because it would just not work. I tried everything. Frist, it would say I had to be an administrator for it to run, so I ran it as an administrator, but then it just wouldn't start. So, I ran the technical compatibility troubleshoot and tried every setting they recommended and it won't start or open at all. It doesn't even try to start. The run as administrator permission box opens and I click ok and then nothing happens. It still won't work. Any fixes for this? It worked before on windows 7 and then I upgraded to windows 10 and now nothing.

2015-10-19T23:20:22+00:00 Why would these questions be suited to the XBox forum? We all have CD and DVD games for the PC, not for the XBox. These are not XBox games. These CD and DVD games all appear to have certain forms of DRM which Microsoft has deemed unacceptable and Microsoft has decided to not allow us to play these games which for some of us amounts to quite a lot of money down the tubes.

I have had issues with the MS/XBOX games that were automatically installed on my desktop computer since before the last Windows 10 update, and now they won't run at all. I uninstalled them and it won't let me reinstall them. It says I own them but it won't reinstall. The error code I am getting when I try to reinstall is 0x80070422.
I tried your link above to the Xbox forum and it is dead. Now what?
