Disc to digital console

Hi there.

Thank you for reaching out to the forum. Unfortunately not. You have to re-purchase your disc based games, if you want them on your All digital console (Xbox One S and Xbox Series S).

Since you still can buy "non-digital" consoles with disc drive, you can still get such a console if you want to keep your disc based games. The consoles with disc drive can also be used to download games digitally.

As for getting a digital version for your disc purchase, that probably won't happen, as the publishers would face the problem of their game not selling anymore.

Imagine a person buying the game on disc. Then telling Microsoft, they went digital, get the download version for free, and then sell the disc.

The new disc owner tells Microsoft they went digital, gets the free download and sells the disc.

Then the new disc owner tells Microsoft they went digital, gets the free download and sells the disc.

Then the new disc owner tells Microsoft they went digital, gets the free download and sells the disc.

Then the new disc owner tells Microsoft they went digital, gets the free download and sells the disc.

etc...

Eventually, the whole world owns the game digitally, but the game was really only sold once, causing a huge loss for the game's publisher.

So if you still want to keep your discs, simply don't buy the all digital version of the Xbox One console.

Is this a game you only bought on disc? As you can't play disc games on an all digital console. You will need to buy a digital game version to play on the all digital console as it uses the disc to still confirm you own the game.

Did you purchase the game digitally or disc? If disc, you need to ensure the disc is in the system. If digital, try resetting your console.

There is no program to transfer a physical copy of the game to a digital copy. When you put the disc in it installs the game to the hard drive, as is necessary, but does not make that a digital copy. It still requires the disc and verification to play.
So if you have a new console, then you will need to use the disc to install the games on the new console, and continue to use that disc to play. If you have an all digital and there is no disc, then I would see if you could still return the console to get
one that has a disc drive, or look at purchasing digital titles or downloading free titles such as Fortnite on the Xbox One S All Digital edition.
