  1. Game Data Not Syncing


    So I recently upgraded from an original Xbox One to an Xbox Series X. I placed all of my games onto an external hard drive and moved it over to the new Xbox Series X. However, I'm having an issue where some games aren't loading my latest saves. It's showing old saves from 7-12 months ago. But if I swap the external hard drive back to the old Xbox One, it loads my latest saves with no issue. (For example, Forza Horizon 5 lost most of my cars and data; Sniper Elite 5 and Mad Max both show saves from almost a year ago versus what should be saves from a month or two ago.) I'm not sure how to get the games to load the most recent saves. I don't know if it's an issue with the cloud not syncing or something else. Any help would be much appreciated.

    :)

    How do I get my Gears Of War 3 stats back

    The saved data may have been overwritten already which means that re-syncing the game data will just sync the latest save.

    Game Data Not Syncing

    Hello XII D
    My name is Jose, and I am an independent advisor who would be happy to help you with your problem.

    In this case, you may encounter an error when playing on an Xbox console that has not completed syncing your cloud saves. This usually happens after playing on a different console. You have two options to address the problem

    Sync last saved data" to stop loading from the other console and synchronize the data on the current console. However, this may result in loss of synchronized data from the other console.

    Continue waiting to resolve the synchronization problem with the other console. This usually involves logging into your profile on that console and allowing you to complete the upload.

    Game Data Not Syncing

    I'm sorry for not being very clear in my first response. XII D, I understand that you have a problem with the synchronization of your games, is that correct? Therefore, I suggest you perform these steps:

    Try connecting your console to a wired online connection and then try launching any digital games again.

    If the issue persists, try deleting your locally saved data and resyncing it to the cloud. Here, we'll explain to you how to do it:

    Your game's local save may have been corrupted. If so, deleting the local save and syncing it back to the cloud might fix the issue. First, delete the local save:

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide, and then select My games & apps > See all > Games.
    2. Highlight the game title and then press the Menu button on your controller.
    3. Select Manage game and add-ons > Saved data.
    4. Select Delete All to delete the local save for this game, then follow the prompts.

    After deleting the local save, restart your Xbox:

    1. Press and hold the Xbox button in the center of your controller.
    2. Select Restart Console and then follow the prompts.

    After restarting your Xbox, sync your saved games to the cloud again. Your saved games are automatically stored in the cloud while you're connected to the Xbox service.
