Games are not contingent to download when I put Xbox to instant on

Put your console in instant on mode in the power settings then it will download any updates when your console if off.

yes that's what I'm trying to tell you, instant on mode does not work. When I put it in instant on mode and I uncheck if Xbox is off turn off storage. That way when I turn the Xbox off I don't want the external storage to turn off but it seems to do that
anyways. When I turn off the Xbox to download the DLCs or updates whatever, the power light on the power supply is white, the network is still trying to download the files because I could still see the network switcher blinking but the external hard drive
is not powered on. So yes I know all about the instant on and the energy mode.

Hi there the best way to have it is on instant on- in this state the xbox one will automatically download updates when they become available. You can put it on energy saver if thats whats comfortable but you will have to manually download updates. Enjoy
the Xbox one

Or just go into the power settings & put your console in "Instant On" mode & the updates will download when your console is off.

Hello, thanks a lot for the trick.

After a few days of tests, it seems working pretty well now.

The only strange thing is that after 20 minutes of being powered off (always in instant mode) the Xbox app takes two downloads to start the first one, while, if I turn on the Xbox remotely, I’m able to see my games list change in real time and to download immediately. I have the feeling that the console isn’t able to proper communicate remotely when in a deep state of “sleep” (20+ minutes after turning it off and putting it in instant on).

Do I have to consider this a normal behavior? Or i should be able to download and see my games list change in real time from remote even when the console is turned off (instant on)?

Thanks again!
