    Clearing cache


    do not cancel an update for games installed on your system. This will not only delete the update but also the game. I did this because the update froze for about a half an hour and was told to clear cache to reinstall the update and it would not delete the
    game, but it did delete the game... just a warning.

    :)

    Clearing Cache

    not your saves or your cheevos.......All downloaded game updates will be removed. So if you have downloaded an auto-update for a game, in order to play it on Xbox Live you will need to re-download it. Clearing cache :D

    Clearing Cache

    i was thinking about clearing my cache, i have had my xbox 360 for just over 2 years any never done it. i always delete items on my HD if i do not require them or need them for games that i dont play anymore. is it worth doing if i do those to things anyway
    and would i have to reinstall anything afterwards like i have BF3 and i CBA to download the update again as it took a while



    any advice ?

    Clearing Cache

    Greetings, Sm311! Thanks for bringing your question to us. JUAN is correct, clearing your cache will allow you to re-download recent updates and will not remove your game files. Is there a particular reason you're thinking about clearing your cache? If your
    update for Battlefield 3 downloaded correctly you shouldn't need to clear your cache. However, in case you ever need to do so in the future, here are the steps to take:

    Clearing Cache

    If you are not having a problem with downloaded content or Profile, you do not need to clear the cache on the hard drive.

    I have only cleared the cache once on 1 console due to update problem.

    Clearing cache will delete any recient updates that were done, thinking it might be a problem. But won't delete the game, if install, or saves.

    D33dles has it right, there's a restart console option in the settings I think that it clears the cache.

    clearing the cache

    I think Xbox 1 should have a UI/Software/OS function under settings to Clear the Cache without having to hard reset the console. Xbox 360 has this option where you can under settings clear the cache on your console without hard resetting it. Sorry for the
    multiple post peps it feels like I'm the only one on this forum (at this time).

    clearing the cache

    And since Xbox 1 console's have a non-removable internal 5400rpm HDD (these have been around for Y-E-A-R-S) I'm just curious if this hard reset thingy aka Force Shutdown is a good idea after all. Of course you could open up the console and pull it out, call
    that removable, but I think messing around with inside your Xbox console is against the Xbox Rule Book and it automatically voids your console's warranty. Xbox 1 has external HDD support, but it isn't much fun running a console with a dead HDD inside of it.
