  • PC Game Pass release "enable mods" switch missing

    The PC Game Pass release of Football Manager 2022 had an option (within the Xbox app) to "enable mods", which then moved the install folder to the "ModifiableWindowsApps" folder within the drive that the game was installed to.

    However, the PC Game Pass release of Football Manager 2023 doesn't have this option (it actually flashes up onto the screen for a split-second and then disappears).

    Is this a bug (I know that the Microsoft Store releases can be fiddly) or is this a permanent change?

    I don't want to buy an extra copy of the game on a different platform (e.g. Steam) only to discover that an update fixes this issue!

    Sorry, I think the setup on PC Game Pass is just different this year - I've just posted a workaround (I say "workaround", I think it's just different now) in a different forum topic.

    Last year, you went into the Xbox app, clicked the three dots next to the game (i.e. Football Manager 2022), and in the pop-up window, you'd need to click "enable mods". But that's not there now (it flashes up for a split-second, then disappears).

    This year, I've just gone into the Xbox app, clicked the three dots next to the game (i.e. Football Manager 2023) and in the pop-up window, ignored the "enable mods" flash, and instead clicked the second tab in the popup window (Files), then clicked "Browse". That is taking me straight to the install directory... no faff needed.

    Not sure if it's the same for everybody!
