How do I keep games uninstalled?

Games that I am trying delete aren’t deleting and if they do they come back next time I turn on my Xbox. They are also still taking up storage. I have no room in my Xbox One because if it.

Hi,Joey! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

Have you performed a full power cycle already?

Turn off your console by holding the Xbox button  on the front of the console for approximately 10 seconds. The console will turn off.

Once the lights on the front of the console, unplug the power cable from the rear of the console.

Wait at least 2 minutes

Turn your console back on by pressing the Xbox button  on the console or the Xbox button  on your controller.

Check if you permamently delete games now

I have tried this and the manage game data is dlc and game installation only. I am having trouble getting rid of 3 dlc data on my system. Not the external. Stopping me playing the game. But getting no answers from anywhere

By game updates, are you meaning the title updates? In that case, you probably need to re-install the entire title. I've not seen any option to only clear the title update.

This is different from installed DLC, which you should be able to uninstall through Games & Apps>Games>press [Menu] on Battlefield>Manage Game

Try clear the cach of the HDD. If that dose not work. Press the menu buttion. And go to game detail.

When you're looking at the games list, press A to select the game, not Y for Game Options. That takes you to the list of individual files for the game. From there delete the install file.
