I think you just saved my life.

Ok, not quite, but it is going to make next monday’s late launch of Dark Souls 2 a lot more bearable, I can just leave it overnight.

PITA.

However, during or after downloading one or multiple games, if you go to “users”,”turn off the system” and check the “turn off system automatically after background download” option and then click “yes”. It will automatically install them. It’s a bit unintuitive (as the option does not suggest installing) but am “amazed” you did not mention this “simple thing”. 😛

Sony really need to fix this up though.

You should probably ditch the forums you’ve been using all these years.

I have asked on forums on how to do this for years and never got a solution.

Up until recently, if you had uninstalled items, PS Plus would automatically install them for you on its scheduled update. Then they took that away. Can’t believe there isn’t an “install all” option 7 years after launch.
