    Game update just redownloaded entire game.


    Basically I took my external drive to use on my downstairs Xbox, launched the game but it said required an update which I thought was strange as it was already updated, it proceeds to redownload the entire game again.

    Pretty much screwed, can't play anything till next month now as my internet's data cap can't afford to redownload all 120 GB again so why the heck has it done this.

    :)

    Game update just redownloaded entire game.

    looks like it glitched out, next time when moving them i would fully shutdown the consoles first.

    also why are people still restricted by data caps, not seen them for over a decade.

    Hello, DeanHippo. Thanks for reaching out! My name is Lucas, and I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft user just like you. I'll be happy to assist you today.

    May I know which console do you have? Is it Xbox Series S/X?

    Also, where is the default installation for your Xbox console? Is it the internal storage or your external drive?

    Waiting for your kind reply.

    Title updates not saving

    To clarify, you are prompted to redownload game update every time, or the entire console update?

    Update confusion

    When you cancel an update it causes the system to have to redownload the entire game plus the update.
