    Can't play an installed game while another downloads.


    My Xbox One S is the Battlefield 1 bundle. I installed Mafia III from a disc but won't let me play anything while other things are downloading. What do I do now?

    can you install one game while playing another

    @M Bierce

    You can't play a disc game while installing another disc game

    But you can play a disc game while another is downloading, play a download while installing a disc or play a download while installing another download.

    can you install one game while playing another

    @M Bierce

    You can't play a disc game while installing another disc game

    But you can play a disc game while another is downloading, play a download while installing a disc or play a download while installing another download.

    Cannot locate games I have downloaded from Gold

    @ zx kody 01 xz

    What is the exact problem?

    Do you get a can't download error?

    If it's a can't download error then go into the hard drive and delete the partial download for Mafia II

    Then download again but they time stay on the active downloads screen.

    There is a bug that if you try to download a game on demand in the background while playing another game or an app or just browsing the dashboard, you get a can't download error.

    Until this bug is fixed you should stay on the active downloads screen while downloading games.

    Game Pass download speed

    is there another game running while your downloading the game. if there is usually when you play a game while downloading reduced download speed.

    Better Informed about features

    you can also play the game while it downloads or play another game while it downloads... no more 360 sitting and waiting looking at the dashboard
