  1. Have to reset Xbox every time I turn on to sign in


    Every time I turn on my Xbox, it signs my account out immediately. I get a “Goodbye Wes” message.

    When I try to sign back in by entering the code sent to my email, it signs me in on my phone but not on the Xbox.

    When I try to “use the controller instead” it doesn’t even load the page.

    If I reset the system, I can sign in normally and always check to be automatically signed in. However once I turn my Xbox off I have to repeat this process. Please help.

    Hi Wes, my name is Joel, I'm here to help you with any problems or questions you may have.

    Wes, what you indicate is happening to your console is something very strange, but if you manage to sign in to your mobile phone and the console after rebooting, it indicates that the problem is not with your account. To try to solve this problem, I invite you to perform a factory reset to your console, making sure that you have all your login details beforehand

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    - Select Settings.

    - Select All settings.

    - Select System.

    - Select information and updates of the console.

    - Select Reset console.

    Once there, select option 2. Restore and maintain my games and applications.

    Please note that this is only a public forum, I will respond to you in a short period of time within the possible apologizing in advance for any delay in response. I am simply a user trying to provide information and knowledge that may be useful to others, I am not an employee of Microsoft.

    Having to reset xbox one every time I turn it on

    Hey Kaboodle

    Thank you so much for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums.

    In regards to this matter, I would suggest is performing a
    soft factory reset
    on your console. This tends to solve a myriad of hiccups with your console and it is the quickest way to find out if it could be something with the console itself.

    This can be done by performing these steps:

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    2. Select System > Settings > System > Console info.
    3. Select Reset console.
    4. On the Reset your console? screen, you'll see three options:
    • Reset and remove everything. This option resets the console to factory settings. All user data, including accounts, saved games, settings, home Xbox associations, and all games and apps will be deleted. You should use this option when selling
      or gifting the console to someone else. You should only use this option as a last resort in some troubleshooting cases.
    • Reset and keep my games & apps. You should use this option as your primary choice when troubleshooting. It will reset the OS and delete all potentially corrupted data without deleting your games or apps. This will save you from downloading
      or reinstalling the large game files. In some cases, if a corrupt game file is causing the issue you're troubleshooting, you may have to choose
      Reset and remove everything, but you should always start with
      Reset and keep my games & apps
      and save Reset and remove everything as a last resort.
    • Cancel. To back out of this screen, simply select the
      Cancel
      button. No action has been taken at this point. This is a safe exit from this screen.

    I recommend that you keep your games and app as to make sure you can get back to gaming as quickly as possible.

    Give this a shot and let us know your results!

    I haven't ran into this specifically, but there are a couple things I would try having a background in home theater equipment.

    1. Try replacing the HDMI cable. It is possible that there is a handshake issue between the TV and the XBox.
    2. If the XBox runs through another device, for example a sound system, try connecting directly to the TV.
    3. Power cycle your devices. Simply unplug the XBox and your TV (and AV receiver if you have a surround sound system) for 30-60 seconds. Plug them back in and see if the problem continues.
    4. Contact XBox Support, but I'd wait it out a bit to see if anyone else has a fix for you.

    May the Gaming Gods be with you.
