How to manage individual saves on the xbox cloud

Xavier Freeman · Jun 26, 2024

I've been playing a game with an 11 hour save but every time l go in the game to delete a single save file that would only bring me back 4 minutes it crashes as the save file character is corrupted is there a way to delete a single item from the cloud instead of deleting all the games saves or not

Hi Xavier, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

I am sorry to hear that.

The save files are condensed into one file, we can't individually delete them using the system.

It is possible from the in-game Menu of games that offer that option, example: Fallout 4. Were you can load the save files list and delete the ones you don't want.

Since, in your case, you have a corrupted save file, this may not work, sadly.

To delete the save data, you can follow these steps:

On Home, select My games & apps.

Highlight the game, press the Menu button on your controller, then select Manage game & add-ons.

Select the Saved data box, then choose the item you want to delete.

Select Delete Everywhere.

2.Highlight the game, press the Menu button on your controller and then select Manage game.

4.You'll be prompted to confirm deletion of this game save data:

◦Delete everywhere will remove your saved data from this console, the cloud, and all other consoles you play on.

◦Cancel will leave your data intact.
