# How do I find My games & apps on Xbox and this PC?

> On Xbox, open My games & apps > Full library. On a PC, your Microsoft games are in the Xbox app library; past purchases are in your order history.

On an Xbox console, your games are in **My games & apps**: open **Full library > All owned games** to see everything you own, installed or not. On a Windows PC, Microsoft games on this computer are in the **Xbox app** under **My Library** (or the Microsoft Store **Library**), and every purchase is listed in your order history at account.microsoft.com. Make sure you are signed in with the same Microsoft account you used to buy them.

## On a Windows PC

1. Open the **Xbox app** and select **My Library** (or open the **Microsoft Store** and go to **Library**).
2. Look for games with a download or install button: these are owned but not installed.
3. Click **Install** to download the game.
4. If a game is missing, check that you are signed in to the same Microsoft account in both the Xbox app and the Microsoft Store.

## Games already installed on this computer

To see which games are installed on your PC, use the installed filter in the Xbox app's **My Library**, or open **Settings > Apps > Installed apps** in Windows and search for the game. Games from other launchers, such as Steam or the Epic Games Store, appear in those launchers' own libraries.

## On Xbox

1. Press the Xbox button and open **My games & apps**.
2. Select **See all**, then **Full library**.
3. Choose **All owned games** to see everything you bought, including games not installed.
4. Game Pass titles appear in a separate Game Pass section and are available only while your subscription is active.

## On the web

Sign in at account.microsoft.com, open **Payment & billing > Order history** and you will see every game and add-on bought with the account, including the date and device.

## If games are missing

- You may be signed in to a different account (for example, a work or second personal account).
- The game might have been bought on another platform, such as Steam, and is linked to that account instead.
- Game Pass games disappear from your library when the subscription ends.
- Hidden games can be unhidden in your library filters.

Only games on Microsoft's backward compatibility list. Compatible discs work, and digital copies you own appear in your library.
