    Should I factory reset my Xbox?


    What should I do if my Xbox Series X is refusing to connect to the internet and I can’t buy or download anything and when I connect it, it will just automatically disconnect or say it wasn’t connected to the internet.

    :)

    No backwards compatibility games connect to Xbox Live.

    Hi Pabrh4,

    Thanks for your post! I understand you are experiencing an issue playing Xbox 360 games on your Xbox One S. Have you attempted a Soft Factory Reset(reset console and keep my games& apps)?

    A Soft Factory Reset will remove your profile and reset your console's operating system(OS) to factory settings while keeping your games and apps, this should correct issues related to your console's OS.

    To perform this, check out this article:
    Xbox One Factory Reset    .

    I hope this helps.

    Issue launching games using Microsoft store.

    I am glad I am not the only one in this, I am in the process of factory resetting my PC right now but you are exactly right, this issue should be looked into by the company, I shouldn't have to factory reset my PC everytime I want to use the Xbox Game Pass

    Hello Chris,

    for the factory reset I chose the Option which keeps the apps and games downloaded. I reckon that I should try the full factory reset clearing the whole Xbox?
