    There seems to be a issue with background apps running try doing a hard shutdown by holding in power button for 20 seconds and turn on and install the game and do nothing else until installed and see if it is any better.

    How to manage Xbox One interface lists

    When I press the Home button and side menu comes up where I can navigate to the Home screen or pick a place in the standard interface to go directly to. Below that is a list of games and Apps I use frequently. How do I manage that list (add or remove) items
    from that list of apps, please?

    When you're back on your dashboard or through guide when you press the Home button, highlight what you need to close and press the menu button on your controller and select Quit.

    Missing inputs with Elite controller (Halo 5 specifically)

    Ok the reason for this could be you are not closing out your apps after you have opened them

    make sure you click the guide when leaving your game to go back to the home menu then press the start key over the game window that is minimized and select quit

    if you dont quit the apps will continue to run in the background and consume console ram and create lag

    look on youtube on how to close games on the xbox one

    Yes, you can stop a game or app from running. Hover over the game or app tile on the Xbox Home Screen and press Menu (the button with the 3 lines) and press 'Close Game/App' at the bottom (the cross).
