Games disappearing from Xbox internal and external drives

Once you copy from internal to external, the internal one will disappear after the process is done. So you are basically just moving it from one to the other. After you move all your games to the external drive. There will be a tab above your games that
lets you choose internal/external "source". If you choose internal it will show empty if you have moved all your games to the external.

Do you have an external hard drive plugged in to your xbox.

Do the games load ok from your internal drive. might be worth unplugging your external drive to make sure and load a game from internal drive.

I do move, but it seems the games just copied, and when i check whats on my drives the games appear on the internal and external drive, then when i delete from the internal drive, the game also deletes from the external drive?

I remember when i dowloaded doom3 it did say must be installed on the internal drive, are some games restricted to only allowed to be on the internal drive?

Do you know if the missing games are on internal or external storage? It sounds like the Xbox is not seeing the external drive. Try unplugging your external storage and doing a full shutdown of the Xbox. While it is off, plug in the external drive and then
turn the Xbox back on. Go to Settings > System > Storage and see if the drive is there. From there you can also view the content of both internal and external drives.

Hope this helps

Hi,

are they installed on internal HDD?

If not - Optimized games must be on internal drive, games for Xbox One can be run from external HDD.
