Keep Windows Store Apps After Format?

Hey guys, my pc had a not-so-celan install of Windows 10, I get at least one BSOD every day now, and programs run slower. Now I downloaded Forza Apex from the store and oh boy it is 25 Gigs. Now I need a solution, I need to backup it. It is a big problem for me, I hope you guys know something useful :)

As long as you log on to the same Microsoft account then you should be fine.

I think hes more worried about how it will take him like a day to download it. 

But my solution is to maybe contact microsoft with the built in”get help” and they can help you save the file to a backup drive

I hAve an unfinished pc build. Pls dont bully for not having one yet or i cry.

I'll try it but microsoft is against copying store apps as far as I know.

Hmm, if you are really worried about it, try to logon on a laptop and see if you still have it.

I know copying doesn't work, I won't even try it. You need registery keys and some other complicated stuff so, no luck.
