It's in a separate folder with special permissions, preventing any modification. afaik it's not trivial to "unlock"
I haven't used Gamepass in a while, but moving the install usually works just fine with publisher DRM like that.
I use NileSoft Shell, a replacement for the stock Windows right click menu that adds the option to give you permission to a folder with 2 clicks. Worth it for GamePass mods.
That's not the case. The game folder is accessible... Game pass has been doing that at least since its had Bethesda games on the service.
That being said, the exe is technically different from Steam so the script extender doesn't work. Not actually a big issue this early in the mod scene (most mods don't use the script extender yet). That won't be the case forever unfortunately.
