    Background/Idle/Stand-By Downloads


    I am not sure if this is a feature that is automatically enabled or not on newer consoles, but in the past there was an area in the settings to enable background downloads. Essentially, I am wanting to start an update or download a game, choose to power
    off the console but I do not want the console to fully power itself down until the download is complete and at that time the console would power itself down as previously instructed.

    I do not want to use the "Instant-On" feature in the power and start-up mode settings.

    I know this was a feature on the xbox 360 but couldn't remember if it was something that had to be enabled on the xbox one s. I recently just upgraded from the original xbox one and it had me thinking.

    :)

    Set the console to energy saving.

    But that doesn't answer my question quite all the way. I'm going to keep it on energy saving mode, I just want to know if the download will continue when I power down the console and then shut the console will shut off completely when it is finished.

    Hi Brando

    Lack of power could definitely cause some of those technical issues that are happening. By any chance, do you happen to plug in your Xbox into a surge protector or directly into the wall? Surge protectors have been known to cause corruption to the power
    supplies in the Xbox's and that can lead to technical issues with the software.

    If you have the original Xbox One you may be able to come by another external power unit and give that a try.

    You might be playing a demanding game which uses much ram which explains why yt is not kept in the background. Try power cycling your console anyway as it empties the cache which can improve your consoles's responsiveness.

    Idle background

    I don’t think the age of the console would cause this. Does that only happen when you use Youtube? Try using Netflix and see if it happens. Did you delete Youtube and reinstall it?
