Am I the only person with slow download speed in the Microsoft Store?
Microsoft Store How To Download Game For Pc
Whenever I try to download something big (such as SoT) in the Microsoft Store, download speed seems to be limited to half what my bandwidth offers. When I download a game in Steam, it will work at my max download speed (1,7mb/s). But Microsoft Store won't download faster than 530kb/s. That is 1/3 of my bandwidth.
Microsoft Store Game Download Error
I could be playing SoT again in roughly 3h+-, but instead I won't be able to play it again in 8-9 hours.
