  1. Forza 5 won’t download without pausing every 2 minutes


    I just got the disc forza 5, it won’t successfully download without giving me the notification “installation stopped” and pausing itself every 2 minutes. At first I was assuming it was a console error but I paused the installation and downloaded an even bigger game which downloaded with 0 issues. I’m wondering why forza 5 won’t download properly.

    :)

    Forza 5 won’t download without pausing every 2 minutes

    Hi Oblivia! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Forza Horizon 5 disc game. No worries, let me help you sort this out.

    It's important to note that this is a public user-to-user community forum, and none of us here work for Microsoft.

    Kindly try to perform the following workarounds:

    1. Remove your account, power cycle, and re-add your account:

    Here's how to remove your account:

    > Press the Xbox button  to open the guide.
    > Select Profile & system > Settings > Account > Remove accounts.
    > Select the account that you want to remove, and then select Remove to confirm.

    Power Cycle:

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

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

    Then re-add your account.

    Press the Xbox button  to open the guide.
    Select Profile & System > Add or switch > Add new.
    Enter the email address for the Microsoft account that you want to add, and then select Enter.

    Note: Make sure that you do not select Get a new account unless you want to create a new Microsoft account.

    Enter the password for your Microsoft account, and then select Enter.
    Review the Microsoft Service Agreement and Privacy Statement, and then select I Accept.
    Follow the steps to configure your Sign-In, security & PIN preferences to finish adding your profile to the console.

    2. Clear the local save for Forza Horizon 5 and resync with the cloud. Here's how:

    It’s possible that the local save for your game has become corrupted. If so, deleting the local save and re-syncing with the cloud might correct the problem.

    First, delete the local save:

    Press the Xbox button  to open the guide and then select My games & apps > See all > Games.
    Highlight the game title, and then press the Menu button  on your controller.
    Select Manage game and add-ons > Saved data.
    Select Delete all to remove the local save of this game, then follow the prompts.

    After you delete the local save, restart your Xbox:

    Press and hold the Xbox button  in the center of your controller.
    Select Restart console, then follow the prompts.

    After you restart your Xbox, re-sync your saved games to the cloud. Your saved games are automatically stored in the cloud while you’re connected to the Xbox service.

    Try downloading the disc game again to see if re-syncing with the cloud corrected the game problem.

    Note: When doing this step please make sure that you used to play this game online so that all your data is saved to the cloud.

    Disconnecting every 2-5 minutes

    Afaik DS-lite but everything is IPv4 so..that is not the issue

    and i would apreciate to get something tangible from official side. Because the whole time "try this" then "try that" and then again "try..." ect.
