Games that are installed without authorization

What happens is that sometimes I am on the home screen and automatically install games that I have not seen. Because the truth I am new in xbox one, so I do not know if this is normal, please I hope someone solves this doubt.

HDD ERROR

Hi everybody

When I install a game on the hard drive
of my xbox360 S and run it, after 5mn the console displays
"failure of authorization"
and restarts,

when I run without having installed
it, its works normally.

So any solution to fix this problem?

I tried to wipe cache of the drive, and formatted it

Games that are installed will NOT open.

Hey Karen,

I suggest giving your PC and network devices a full reboot and it may also be a good idea to sign out, and then back into the

Xbox App to re-establish connectivity to Xbox Live.

I also think looking over the
Troubleshoot gameplay issues on Windows 10 article on our website will be helpful as well.

Let us know if there's anything else we can help with.

It could depend on what games you're seeing. Occasionally there are "free play days" where you get to play a game for free for a few days and they're usually downloaded automatically and then removed after the free days are over.

Otherwise, that's usually the sign that someone else has your console set as their Home console. You would download anything they purchase if that is the case.

There is no authorized 20GB HDD for the 360 S. The only authorized HDDs available for the 360 S are 250GB and 320GB.

Whatever you bought is not legitimate. Return it.

Does your console boot without the HDD installed?

First issue with that is, some games have mandatory installs in order for you to use certain features. And you cannot play halo co-op without a hard drive. Playing uninstalled games also makes your console sound much louder than many people want to hear.
Finally, is your 40.00 eBay HDD an official authorized drive? The TOU states that non authorized third party hardware can result in a console ban.

Ok kids, heres a realistic solution.

-

You can install your games and then put your disc back in the case and it can verify it ONLINE.

-

OR

-

You can play offline, still have to install the game, instead of an online check it checks the disc and allows you to play the game.

-

People who want the benefits of no disc swapping get it. People without reliable internet get to play offline because there are two ways to authorize a game.
