Game took too long to start error code 0x8027025a

To add some light on this, my console sometimes gives me an error "Guide took too long to start: Error code 0x8027025a"

agreed, with error that says "For some reason TV took too long to start. (0x8027025a)"

I got error code 0x8027025a on a digital game once saying that the game took too long to load. But I have tried physical and digital games.

Now my digital copy of Hal0 5 is not loading, I'm getting dumoed bck to the desktop/home screen. Error code 0x8027025a. "Hlo 5 for ome reason took too long to start"

Hello,

So last night I was frantically going through the internet trying to find the answer this problem I also started having. I bought Mortal Kombat 11 from Microsoft store and it was not playing at all so I got frustrated coz I thought I wasted money. I got
zero help from all the posts I read on support communities until I tried figuring out why some games play and why some do not. This was after I had tried everything on the internet.

It seems like (if not fixed by restarting and clearing cache) the error can be cause by a faulty HDD. I have been using an external HDD on my xbox for a while now. I noticed that all games installed on the external storage are not starting and the download
speed at Microsoft store to external storage is also ridiculously slow even though I have good connection. I moved the apps that no longer wanted to start to internal storage and they launched properly now. Also note that while the xbox is busy moving and
installing items it might refuse to start any app at all so try waiting for items in queue to finish processing before starting anything.

I hope this helps.
