All my games started taking too long to start, hard reset, dashboard takes too long to start

Hi
NugTheNugget,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. I'd be happy to help.

Go ahead and do a
hard reset and power cycle. Hold down the power button on the console for about 10 seconds until it shuts down and then remove the power cable from the Xbox and the power outlet for about 2-3 minutes. Then re-connect and
turn on the Xbox.

If that doesn't help then you will need to try out a
soft factory reset.

1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
2. Select System > Settings > System > Console info.
3. Select Reset console.

Make sure to select "Keep my games & apps" and have the correct account login information plus your WIFI password ready if you connect wireless because you will need to re-add the account's that were on the Xbox and re-connect to your network during the
reset.

Let us know the results!

Clear cache in your console.

Press & Hold Power Button on your Xbox wait for 10 seconds. Xbox will be shutdown immediately. And then you turn on your Xbox again.

I will try this later i am busy tonight and will let you know if it fixes
