    What's happening here? Must have something to do with HDR ... but every image I copy up to One Drive becomes two files on One Drive. If i copy the same file to a USB stick and move it to my PC I get one image. I want just the one image please and it's not clear why this is happening or how to remedy. Help please?

    rant: This used to be so easy, back when there was a companion app for xbox. Just open the app on the device you're trying to move an image to and while the web connection wasn't always reliable after a couple refreshes the file was just there. Now we have hoops to jump through and neither path (external portable storage or One Drive) is as convenient as before. Furthermore we're going to all have to get used to our screenshots copying up to One Drive because the xbox online storage is about to go away in a couple months. Surely I can't be the only one scratching my head and now having to go through and delete 50% of the images created during a copy (the "light" version is at least usable if slightly degraded).

    :)

    Hello Cocorox,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    We understand that you're experiencing issues with copying screenshots from Xbox to One Drive. It sounds like the issue may be related to the HDR settings on your Xbox. When you take a screenshot with HDR enabled, the Xbox will save two versions of the image - one with HDR and one without. This is because some devices may not be able to display HDR images properly.



    To remedy this, you can try disabling HDR on your Xbox before taking screenshots. This should result in only one version of the image being saved. Alternatively, you can try using a different method to transfer your screenshots, such as using a USB drive as you mentioned. Learn more here: Back up your game captures | Xbox Support



    I understand that this may be frustrating, that makes Microsoft in constant work to improvement of services and apps and make things more convenient for more users.

    If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to ask.

    Sincerely,

    Can you share worlds in MC 360 Edition?

    You can make a copy of the world on your hard drive by going into the system settings and from there going into the minecraft area of storage where the save files are. You can copy the save file to make a duplicate and then with the duplicate transfer it
    using a Memory Card or a HDD link cable from your Hard Drive to your friends, alternatively use the cloud storage and transfer it that way.

    TL;DR - Go to settings, find minecraft, duplicate world, transfer.

    external hard drive

    ghostplayer8836,

    "can i copy xbox one games from one external hard drive to another" Currently, you can only have two copies of a game (well, three if you count the one that's always in the cloud). One copy on your Xbox and one copy on a single USB 3.0 external drive. However,
    you should be able to have two external drives plugged into the Xbox and use the Move command to transfer the game/games from one to the other.

    Xbox one s hard drive

    What exactly do you mean by "upload" your 60Gb movie?

    Are you trying to copy a movie file of yours to the internal storage of the console?

    That won't work. You can't copy "outside" files into the Xbox One managed storage.

    You can however simply insert an USB drive with your video file on it, and if it's in a supported format, play it directly from the attached USB storage drive.
