    Game keeps uninstalling after inserting other disc (SERIES X)


    I have recently installed Hogwarts Legacy (disc) on my brand new SERIES X and have played that game for several days without changing the disc. Then I installed Elden Ring (disc), played that game and wanted to play Hogwarts again, only to realise that I had to install the game again. This happened again the next day, after playing Elden Ring again (Elden Ring stayed installed).

    I don't use an external hard drive.

    Is this a known bug or something, is anyone familiair with this problem and a (possible) solution?

    :)

    I appreciate it. Please test it first if the Hogwarts still gets uninstalled when you insert the Elden Ring game. If it's not doing it anymore, it must be fixed.

    Hi Rostom,

    Thanks for your quick response. The only installed games are Hogwarts and Elden Ring, so there is not much space to free up.

    I just cleared the local saved games. Hogwarts was already installed again. Do you advise to uninstall and install again after clearing the local saved games or is that unnecessary?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi WZNDY!

    Sorry to hear about the issue. Make sure that you still have enough storage space on your console. I suggest to free up some space.

    Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.
    Select My games & apps > See all > Manage > Free up space.
    Choose Leftover add-ons or Shrinkable games, highlight an item from the list, press the Menu button, then select Uninstall.

    Let's also clear your local saved games to remove any corrupted saves that may have caused the issue.

    Eject the disc from your console.
    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Storage devices.
    Select Clear local saved games.
    Note: Selecting this option will not delete any games or progress you have saved in the Xbox cloud. It will only clear data you have saved locally.
    Select Yes to confirm.
    Once your console restarts, try installing the game again.

    You're correct. It's the Xbox Series X version.

    Kindly uninstall the game and then reinstall the game by inserting the disc.

    Smart Delivery Series S

    Thank you for the reply.

    The FAQ states the following:

    • If you’re playing from disc on Xbox Series X|S, you’ll need to keep the disc inserted to play that game.
    This implies if I bought a disc and installed on my xbox one, I would require the disc to play on my Series S. However the Series s is discless. I don't understand how a physical disc can state smart delivery for the Series S.
