    Every time I try clicking on a game other than Fortnite, my Xbox disconnects for the tv. Why? How do I fix it?

    Hello, Alex my name is oskayra I am an independent advisor and player like you I hope I can help solve your problem today

    There could be several reasons why your Xbox disconnects from the TV when you try to play a game other than Fortnite. Here are some possible causes and solutions you can try:

    Common causes:

    HDMI cable issues: A faulty or damaged HDMI cable can cause intermittent connections and signal drops, leading to disconnects.

    Incorrect HDMI settings: The wrong settings on your Xbox or TV, such as incorrect resolution or refresh rate, can create compatibility issues and cause disconnects.

    Overheating: If your Xbox is overheating, it might shut down automatically as a safety precaution. This can happen if the console is not properly ventilated or if it's used in a hot environment.
    Software issues: Software bugs or glitches on your Xbox or TV can also lead to unexpected disconnects.

    Solutions:

    1. Check your HDMI cable:

    Make sure the HDMI cable is firmly connected to both your Xbox and TV.
    Try using a different HDMI cable,
    preferably a high-speed certified cable.
    Check if there are any visible signs of damage on the cable, such as fraying or broken connectors.

    2. Verify your HDMI settings:

    Ensure your Xbox and TV are set to the same resolution and refresh rate.
    You can find these settings in the display settings of both devices.

    Try changing the settings to 1080p and 60Hz to ensure compatibility.

    3. Improve ventilation:

    Ensure your Xbox is placed in a well-ventilated area.

    Do not block the ventilation slots on the console.

    Consider using a cooling fan if your Xbox tends to overheat.

    4. Update your software:

    Make sure your Xbox and TV have the latest software updates installed.
    You can install updates through the settings menu on both devices.

    5. Perform a power cycle:

    Turn off your Xbox and TV completely.
    Unplug the power cords for both devices for at least 30 seconds.

    Plug the power cords back in and turn on the devices.

    Additional tips:

    Try using a different HDMI port on your TV.

    Disable any unnecessary features on your Xbox, such as Instant-On mode.

    Check the Xbox Live Service Status page to see if there are any reported outages.
    Consider resetting your Xbox to factory settings if all else fails.

    By systematically troubleshooting these potential causes and implementing the suggested solutions, you should be able to identify the root of the problem and fix your Xbox's disconnect issue.

    Remember to be patient and try different solutions until you find one that works for you.

    I hope this helps! Don't hesitate to ask if you have any further questions or need additional clarification.

    Disconnecting from Xbox Live every 5-10 minutes

    Further information: It is only the xbox that is disconnecting. My PC remains connected at all times (I never disconnect during games on the pc), Netflix on the television does not disconnect, nothing else other than the xboxs.

    Forza horizon 4

    In other online games like bo4, warzone, fortnite, pubg, gta (don't have gta anymore) always ran so smooth like wooden floor. No disconnects either on those other games. I have fh4 on gamepass not sure if that may be a reason y...but yes it disconnects
    every 5-10 mins and it is even worse when in in convoy like it disconnects every 2mins when I'm in convoy and I'm getting sick and tired of going to my friends profile just to join back on them.

    Randomly Disconnected from xbox live when not on dashboard. Lag out of almost every game, especially when two xboxs are both playing

    I reset back to factory default, and UPnP is enabled

    It disconnects just as much if not more than before.

    Netflix disconnects, lag out of every game, and reconnects if I dashboard.

    My xbox even froze a few times, which is new

    can u use xbox 1 without kinnect and voice commands?

    I disconnected my Kinect after the second day and it works fine without it.

    You'll need to log in manually but other than that the controller is quicker for dashboard navigation and it works the first time every time.
