    how to uninstall a game that reappears after I turn off/on my xbox?


    I cant uninstall rainbow 6 siege, it says that it’s no longer there as a game from “games and apps” but when I refresh my Xbox/turn it off and back on it will be back on my console as if I didn’t uninstall it, how do I go about this?

    how to uninstall a game that reappears after I turn off/on my xbox?

    Hello .
    My name is Ryan. I'm an Independent Consultant and I'm happy to help you today.

    If you're facing issues uninstalling Rainbow Six Siege from your Xbox console and it keeps reappearing after attempting to uninstall it, there are a few steps you can try to resolve this problem:

    1. **Hard Reset**: Sometimes, a hard reset can help clear out any temporary glitches. To do a hard reset on your Xbox console, follow these steps:
    - Hold down the power button on the console for about 10 seconds until it turns off completely.
    - Unplug the power cord from the console and wait for about 10 seconds.
    - Plug the power cord back in and turn on the console.

    2. **Clear Local Saved Games**: Sometimes, issues can arise if there's a problem with local saved data. You can try clearing the local saved games for Rainbow Six Siege. Here's how:
    - Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.
    - Go to "System" > "Settings" > "Storage" > "Manage storage".
    - Choose your console's storage device, then select "Saved data".
    - Select "Delete all" to remove all saved data for the game.

    3. **Uninstall via Settings**: If you haven't already, try uninstalling Rainbow Six Siege through the console settings rather than from the Games & Apps section. Here's how:
    - Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.
    - Go to "System" > "Settings" > "System" > "Storage".
    - Select "Manage storage" > "View contents" > "Games".
    - Find Rainbow Six Siege in the list, select it, and choose "Uninstall".

    4. **Clear Persistent Storage**: Clearing the persistent storage can sometimes help with issues like this. Here's how:
    - Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the guide.
    - Go to "System" > "Settings" > "Disc & Blu-ray".
    - Select "Persistent storage" > "Clear persistent storage".

    5. **Contact Support**: If none of the above steps work, you might need to contact Xbox Support for further assistance. They can provide guidance specific to your situation and might be able to help you resolve the issue.

    Remember to back up any important data before performing any troubleshooting steps that involve deleting data, just to ensure you don't lose anything important.

    Hope this helps

    I can not download my daily challenges today

    I have windows8 (hate it) but have had this problem several times. I now uninstall the programme. Turn off my lap tap turn back on, go into store and reinstall the programme. If you're registered with Xbox all your previous results reappear after the first
    game.

    No display after returning to home page

    Occasionally my screen will have no display, but audio is fine, and to get it back I switch my 4K TV off with the remote and turn it back on and it reappears ok.
