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!

2020-06-13T05:23:07+00:00 Every time I try to purchase an app for my windows 10 laptop, the store says "there are no devices connected." When I go into my account, I have 2 devices connected. There is a glitch in the app store somewhere. It is not recognizing linked devices. Please fix the asap.
