Pre loaded Halo 5 ? You may need to reinstall

All of us, at some point, have forgotten that new-gen games need a bit of time to get going. With mandatory installs, buying a game on launch day now feels like buying a ticket to a show in your own house that won't start for a few hours. Which is exactly why digital pre-loading is a great idea - until it doesn't work.
For those of you who've taken the option to download your copy of Halo 5: Guardians early, you might want to check that it's definitely going to work. In an announcment today, Microsoft revealed that a technical snafu means that those who pre-loaded before 21st September might have installed a placeholder file instead of the game itself. Luckily, there's an easy way to check, and a fix in place.
Just head to My Games & Apps, and choose to Sort by Size. Check the entry for Halo 5 - if it's greater than 40GB, you're OK. If it's smaller than 40GB, you've got a dud file, I'm afraid. In that case, hit the Menu button, delete that entry, then go the Xbox Store entry for the game - it'll have a big button that says Install. That'll net you the proper version of the game. Time saved (sort of).
So before you send me messages saying Halo does nt work make sure you ve read this article
