    error 0x80070070 asking to delete space


    I recently downloaded a couple games after getting the gamer's pass and it popped up with the error code 0x80070070 telling me to uninstall something from my internal, then try again. I have 620 GB of free space of storage left, So does anyone know why
    it is asking this and a way to fix it without having to delete any of the data of the 5 games currently downloaded on my 1 TB Xbox 1? To top it off the 3 games sitting in my Queue add up to 21.5 GB.

    :)

    I am not running with an external hard drive. i would figure I would not need one since the Xbox is a 1 TB. If I need an external hard drive would any type of hard drive work or does it have to be a Xbox branded external hard drive. i am just puzzled since
    I have never had to do this with any other console that i have owned and any platform.

    Hey there Nordoom,

    Thanks for reaching out to the Community for advice on how to get past this peculiar situation you are encountering.

    I can totally understand how receiving this error when you have plenty of space could be alarming. If you are getting this error consistently, I would definitely try power cycling the console as outlined in our How
    to restart or power cycle your Xbox One console    .

    If that doesn't positively affect the console, then I would suggest trying a soft reset of the console. It's a factory reset of the console that does not uninstall any of your games/apps. Once you have checked that your network is okay, and have made sure
    that you know all the sign in information of your important gamertags (as they will be removed and have to be redownloaded) follow the steps outlined in How
    to reset your console to factory defaults on Xbox One     and select the option denoted Reset and Keep my games & apps.


    Hope this information was helpful, please give those steps a try when you get a chance and let us know.

    Thanks!

    Hi there Nordoom

    Are you using a external hard drive at all?. Sometimes it adds both internal and external to do things like that you can just move games from internal to external and vise versa by going into my games and apps select the game you want to move press the menu
    button (the one above the right thumb stick and next to the X button) and go to manage game & add-ons then move it to internal or external to free up some space without removing any games :D Hope that helps.
