Games keep constantly freezing or exit out

wolfboy234 · Oct 2, 2017

For the past days I’ve been having trouble to even start games such as Fornite or Elder Scrolls Online, but they all seem to freeze and stop working. This didn’t happen to me before as i could perfectly play but now I can’t even get past tittle screen. I’ve
tried turning off console ect. and nothing seems to work. Please help me resolve this as it makes me angry to not be able to play games that I own.

Are you using "instant on" mode with your console? If so, have you tried fully shutting it down before turning it back on? Hold your finger on the power button on the console itself to turn it off, and keep your finger there until it fully shuts down. The
light on the power supply should turn orange. Then turn it back on.

If that doesn't work, or you've already tried it, you could try a factory reset, choosing the option to keep your games/apps installed. This is pretty painless and only takes a few minutes.

Also, are you using an external hard drive? If you are and your games are stored there and none of the above advice helps, as a test, try copying a game from the external to the internal, then disconnect the external and see if the game will launch. If it
does, it could be an issue with your external hard drive.

I’ve restarted it multiple times and just factory reseted it but the problem seems to keep occurring. I was able to play a couple weeks ago before the update for my xbox. No clue if that has to do with it as i can play destiny 2 which is on disc and its
only occuring on some of my digital games.
