    Does "Reset this Xbox but keep my games and apps" delete all the profiles on it?

    Yes it will remove the profiles so you will need to download them again after the initial set up has been completed.

    Your cousin will need to do this with their profile as accessing someone else's profile is against the rules.

    Black Screen of Death still after Sept 23 Update

    I believe this option will not delete captures as it does not delete your games.

    ''Reset and keep my games & apps. Use this option as your primary choice when troubleshooting. It resets the OS and deletes all potentially corrupted data without deleting your games or apps''

    0x80830003 problem.

    Thank you for that. Kindly reset your console keeping your games and apps. If that didn't work resetting the console keeping games and apps will be the next option. Don't worry because as long as you're connected to Xbox Live your saved progress, games, will not be deleted. It will remove all of your accounts but you can add all of them later on.

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

    Select Reset console.

    Reset and keep my games & apps.

    Wont let me add account

    Hello there Colt1055!

    Thank you for the update.

    This time, we'll reset the Xbox to default.

    Press the Xbox button

    Select Profile & system

    Select Settings

    Select System

    Select Console info

    Select Reset console

    Choose "Reset and keep my games and apps"

    When resetting the Xbox, make sure that you do not have any offline saves because it will be deleted. But if you are connected to your network when gaming there is no need to worry because your game saves is saved to the cloud and it won't be deleted from the system.

    We will choose: "Reset and keep my games and apps"

    Which means all of your games will remain installed on your Xbox.

    The profile downloaded will be deleted but you always have the option to redownload them.

    Thank you.
