I did not buy Sea of Thieves, and did not file this complaint, so I am confused as to why I received this notice. Mike G. ******@hotmail.com
‘No applicable devices linked to Microsoft account’

i have been trying to download sims 4 on my windows 10 lenovo. It says ‘you own this game’ and gives me the option to ‘install on my devices’ however when i click this, it tells me i dont have any applicable devices linked to my microsoft account. I do have a microsoft account and it is linked to my windows 10 laptop. Is this an issue with windows 10? It was very expensive so i therefore expect to get my moneysworth. Do i need am Xbox account? Is that the issue? Very frustrated i just wanted the sims and have discovered that many people have the same issue. Help me microsoft!

2020-01-01T14:58:24+00:00 I bought Sea of thieves December 31, 2019 and I cannot install it because it says there is not an applicable device linked to your Microsoft account and I do not know what it is. I've spent a whole evening on it but I'm not making any progress so I want my SEK 249 back or so from you guys so it works

2019-12-09T06:41:39+00:00 Same. I had done this a month ago, and it had eventually worked over the next couple days. I renew my subscription today, and as expected, the same thing happens. Super wonky if you ask me. Kinda fucking sucks.
