    Games are not updated when the Xbox is turned off, I have everything turned on to update everything when the Xbox is turned off and I also have it in Instant-On mode. But the games do not update me
    automatically. Only consoles are updated.

    :)

    Fallout 4 saves missing

    I updated my Xbox today and when I go to play Fallout 4 it says could not find game data. So I turned off my system, turned it back on and now there is no continue option and I can not load any game data. Everything is gone. What the heck happened to
    my data?

    Hey Jurgen!

    Try going into your Settings > Power & Start up > Power mode & start up and uncheck the box that says "When Xbox is off, turn off storage"

    Let me know with a reply how this works for you

    Thanks for reaching out!

    Are you playing on the console that is set your Home Xbox? Do you have an external storage? If so make sure the option to leave the storage on.

    Hello, I have not checked this thing there. It's just that I've done everything so I can update it but as soon as I turn on the Xbox, there's a game update I have.

    Have you turned on the option to keep games and apps updated. If not, then that will be why. More info on the power options can be found here https://support.xbox.com/en-GB/xbox-one/console/learn-about-power-modes

    Unplug Console

    Does the external hard drive ever turn off when the Xbox is off?

    The console has a setting to turn external storage off when the console is turned off. It's in the power settings. However, for some reason, some externals do not turn off when the console is turned off, even when the "When Xbox is off, turn off storage" setting is enabled.

    The second thing that will cause most externals to go to sleep is inactivity. Usually there is a setting in the drive's own firmware that says "go to sleep after 30 minutes of inactivity" or whatever.

    Here's what I would recommend: -

    1. If it's not already enabled, enable the "When Xbox is off, turn off storage" setting in the console's power settings, then test to see if the drive turns off when the Xbox is turned off.

    2. If option 1 is no help and the drive never turns off, disable that setting, then see if the external turns off after a period of inactivity once the Xbox has been turned off.

    If you unplug the drive when the console is off, obviously, if you have the console set to automatically update your games/apps, it won't be able to update anything on the external while the Xbox is off as it's not connected. That is the primary downside of what you're currently doing.
