    if you are downloading a file, can you switch profiles and keep downloading from the other profile

    Hi Garry,

    Thanks for coming to the forums with your question. Yes you are able to switch to other profiles while installing a game from another. You can view the guide for

    installing games on Xbox one     for any other questions.

    Thanks,

    Brad

    if you are downloading a file, can you switch profiles and keep downloading from the other profile

    Hi
    garrymensch

    I would believe so yes. At least I have downloaded some games on my own profile from Xbox Gamepass, while my kid used the console with her profile.

    Transferring files from HD to HD with a USB thumb drive?

    You really only need to transfer your save game files. DLC you can re-download from your Download History. Your profile you can just re-download to the new storage device.

    Deleted Profile

    If the profile that you deleted from your console is the one that you are posting from, you can indeed get it back. However, you will need to connect to Xbox LIVE long enough to download it. The only other option would be to download your profile to another
    console and then transfer it with a USB drive. As for the game save, you can copy it or move it using another profile, making it owned by that profile. But, while you'll be able to afcess it with the new profile, you will not be able to earn achievements with
    that save file any longer if you make a new profile the owner.
