Cd and game issue

[Thamas]

Hi there 

I borrowed a game on CD from my friend  and downloaded  to my console, it’s looks like I can’t play without disc now ?

Is that true that for cd games I still need a disc ??

Hi @ Thamas , unfortunately you  must own CD to initiate a game code every time when you are playing by putting CD in. Even when the game is installed on the console.

Options for you are , borrow CD for loner time or use xbox library in Family mode with your friends ...

The disc is simply used to read the licence key. 
The licence key is never installed onto the Xbox One itself because the licence key is what proves that YOU still own the game.

Thanks @ edjazoli25 , now I know what is going onheheh, I that I can hack the system by borrowing and installing games....

Yes, that’s true , unfortunately we cannot simply borrow from friends and use it after installation, you need game key to start game, you can always put disc -start the game- take disco out (give it back) and then continue with the game on until you finish it-I know it’s extreme, but If you like the game that is the only option for you.
