Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

Do you have an external hard drive plugged into your console, Ted? If yes, please unplug the hard drive and then perform a powercycle before reinstalling the games. Keep the hard drive unplugged.

1. Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off. ​​​

2. Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button on the console or the Xbox button on your controller. ​​​

If there is none, we may need to reset the console keeping your games and apps. 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.

When I try to install the game, it tells me it needs an update and to either update now or update later. Pressing update now causes the same automatic “installation stopped” error as when it requires me to update after installing the new game.
