Use copy and paste. Not cut and paste. I don't know why people recommend cut and paste. If you copy and something goes wrong and you end up with a corrupt file or something you still have a clean backup to use.
should be!! best practice would be to copy the game pass files (instead of cutting), run the game on steam to check if the progress is there, then if it is, then you can uninstall the one in game pass 🙂
The only way this works if you have the game bought already from steam. If you don’t have it purchased then the option to install won’t be there but if it’s purchased then you can just drag the folder over and click on install and it’ll act like it’s installing but it’ll skip the downloading part and just verify what’s there and update it

I am wondering if it would work with Dead by Daylight, i played it for a while from microsoft store but I would like to switch to steam. I could buy the game and try it out but I am not sure if it would work.
@@schlaninininininininininin8651 sadly it doesnt but dead by daylight will release a cross progression feature this summer. They will allow u to merge all accounts together. The good thing about it is that you can transfer your dlcs as well.
the xbox app says i have my game install folder set to c:/xboxgames but that folder only has one folder where saves are supposed to go... its empty. the real save fold is in some stupid windows app folder with restricted access
I have a question i already own Fh4 or Forza Horizon 4 and the game is being delisted so i wanted to buy it from steam versus from xbox for more money but i want to buy ultimate for the DLCs if i buy ultimate will the DLCs transfer to my account?
and you did m8? i recently purchased the game in steam, and my progress from gamepass pc isnt there x_x, and i dont know what to do cuz all was saved in the cloud..
yep! usually what happens is that there will be a folder in the same drive as where you installed the game (if not the same drive, maybe the drive where your OS is installed -- usually drive C); this folder contains your saved data progress :)
i cant get it to work>.< It just gets added into the folder that i moved from Xbox.. When i start game from steam it still shows only my steam saves not XBOX>.< am i a derp? :/
No not a derp, this video should be renamed "HOW TO TRANSFER GAME PASS GAME PROGRESS TO STEAM FOR BATTLEFIELD (2020)" UWP games encrypted that why we can't access them, everyone will run into problems.

Hey, just one question. I'm playing the xbox game pass version of hollow knight and I've progressed a lot. I want to buy the game in steam and pass all my progress, but will I get the achievements in steam?
@@rune13slayer so it wont work in my way :( the thing is game is really big and it will take couple hourse to delete and redownload it (still downloading at the moment)
@@daeboilyoverhorse9026 oooof sadly im not subscribed to gamepass anymore; and i dont have dead by daylight in steam too :( it should work the same way (do it as if the battlefield 1 folders are dead by daylight folders). and make sure to have a backup file (copy it instead of cut) so you won’t lose the files
Does this work the other way round. Example no mans sky save from steam to gamepass. To enable me to play my nms on the xbox once game pass saves to the cloud?
hi just want to ask, im playing Monster Hunter Rise on Xbox Game Pass PC, if i buy the same game in the steam app, will i get back the same progress as in xbox pc game pass?
so i have ark dlc from game pass and i want to transfer my ark dlc onto to steam, does this way work the same but i jus have to transfer the dlc files onto the steam file of ark?
@@lyinex4989 i don’t even think I tried I just bought the dlc, I’d recommend doing the same tbh cuz having the dlc on game pass is temporary until u next pay for it
Is there a way to have all my purchases from xbox to pc cause Ik the stuff in battle pass are long gone but I just wanna mod my conan with all the stuff I bought and dlcs
Tried to do this and didn’t work and I even tried the copy and paste still didn’t work the current game I want to transfer progress is Texas chainsaw massacre I don’t want to lose my progress can someone please help?
Not quite sure which games work since apparently some games dont. You can try copying it (instead of cutting) so you dont lose your progress in game pass :)
havent tried sea of thieves specifically, but it should work! Just copy it (instead of cutting) just to be safe! of course you need to have sea of thieves in steam first!
@@lolcat5 I think this one is more feasible/easier to do since you’ll just have to transfer the base game from game pass to steam. Once it’s transferred, it’s as good as a steam game! PS. don’t forget you also need to have/own the game in steam for you to transfer it!
yep! But you have to have the game on steam! (you have to buy it on your steam account). the tutorial just shows how you can transfer game progress from game pass to steam 👌
Muchas gracias!! Lo solucione de ésta manera sin usar apps, copié y pegue en directorio de Steam, ejecuté la instalación y solo tuvo unos 5min para validar los archivos, nada mas, ya pude jugar con mis progresos y logros que ya tenia en XBOX Pass
I suppose the game is single-player game so it would not have Valve Anti-Cheat running on background and you are still banned from the game? Did i understand the situation correctly?
DUH of course it won't work. UWP file structure is encrypted. You'll probably have to wipe the drive/ reinstall Steam or reinstall Windows. I recommend trying to uninstall all UWP games redo the partition and then try a reinstall from Steam.
is there any way to transfer my fallout 76 save from my xbox to my new pc? I really don't want to give up the possibly hundreds of dollars worth of atoms shop stuff i own. I also don't want to solely play it through cloud gaming either, cause it's sometimes buggy as hell.
Yep LOL people will screw up their installations, thinking they can mix steam files and UWP encrypted files. Battlefield may be the only game that works.
so if i have a game already on my steam account and i want to get a campaign on that game through the gamepass will i have the campaign on my steam account?
yep it should! When i transferred Battlefield 1, all my unlocked guns were unlocked still; and the steam achievements came popping up! hahaha. (i do have to remind tou that you have to buy the game i steam too to do this ayt)
Intenté con Forza H5 y detectó el juego y solo descargó un par de gigas adicionales, pero no transfirió mi progreso, lo cual era lo que quería hacer. Si siguen sabe cómo pasar el progreso de mi FH5 de game pass a Steam se lo agradecería, ya que básicamente desbloqueé todo desde el game pass.
Is it possible to transfer the progress that i have on xbox game pass (pc) windows to steam without linking xbox game pass to my steam when i launch sea of thieves? i got the game on steam and when i launch it it tells me that i need to sign into xbox via steam to play sea of thieves or it will probably reset me so that i start over?
My man playing battlefield true respect
Thanks, you just made me lose all my progression and making me unable to even launch the game
he didnt MAKE you do anything to be fair
Use copy and paste. Not cut and paste. I don't know why people recommend cut and paste. If you copy and something goes wrong and you end up with a corrupt file or something you still have a clean backup to use.
Also if you have cloud saving enabled you should be able to uninstall the game and re download to fix your issue
@@alyyric seriously how you figure that? He literally made a you tube video TELLIN ppl to CUT and paste the entire game folder..
Same thing happened to me
so if I get skyrim on steam, then do this process in the video, my saves should be fine and should be the same as if it was on game pass?
should be!! best practice would be to copy the game pass files (instead of cutting), run the game on steam to check if the progress is there, then if it is, then you can uninstall the one in game pass 🙂
