    Can't play while a game is updating


    Hello

    I have a question. I have a Xbox One X. When a game (not the game that I want to play) is updating, I can't play. The Xbox tell me that I have to try later. Is it normal ?

    (Sorry for my english)

    Thank you !!

    :)

    Try to power cycle your console. Hopefully this will solve this

    Try to UNPLUG POWER to CONSOLE and wait for 2 mins, then plug power back in , turn on and sign in , after that try, if is still does not work,, check my games and apps, then go to updates and see if there is a update for the game you are trying to
    play.

    Hi there!

    *edited* Apologies, I mis-read your question! This is not normal, no. If you follow the advice from other Ambassadors in this thread, and still don't get things working as they should, then you might want to consider a factory reset. Are you in the Preview
    program? Also, please file a bug report, so Xbox Engineers are made aware of the situation. Every little helps!

    Hope you are up and running, soon,

    This is not normal. If the game that is updating was the last game that you opened, try quitting it and run the game that you want to play. Hope this helps.

    Hi ,

    I would also try clearing your MAC address as well as power cycling, It sounds like a small glitch to me
