  1. Installation stopped on hard copy game


    Hi!

    Just got a Series X today and I have an external hard drive with all the games from my Xbox One console already downloaded onto it. Plugged it and everything seemed fine but I tried to put in my hard copy (disk) of Assassins Creed Valhalla and it tells me I need an upgrade to play. I allow it but it starts the update and then immediately says, “Installation stopped”. No error code or anything. So I moved the game file onto the internal hard drive of the series X and tried again to find the same problem. I then went ahead and uninstalled the game completely to try and just start fresh with the game disc and now it won’t even start to install the game from the disc because I can’t get the upgrade. The upgrade is needed that is 200+ Gb. I have the space for it and my internet is fine. The whole reason I got the Series X over the S was so that I could play the hard copy games I’ve already paid for but I have a feeling I won’t be able to if this continues to be the issue. :/

    :)

    No matter what games need large updates these days. I’m afraid you’re going to have to download large files, Due to a variety of reasons, you’re just not going to find a complete modern AAA game on a disc. Many titles including It takes 2 and Call of duty shipped with little more than a loader on the disc.

    Your disc acts as a key that allows you to download the Series version, same as 360 games do

    Fans of hard copies. Of which I am included, should be asking for “complete” versions several years down the line where a standalone, feature complete and stable build can be provided. If you’re buying day one, it’s just not going to be complete. Yes I know it used to be that way, and I’m happy to elaborate on as many things as I’m able to to explain why

    Not sure if you fixed it already but I was having the same problem. However it was with Samurai Showdown. I have the Xbox version but of course the beautiful free upgrade that comes with it is necessary these days. I put the game in and was asked about the upgrade, said yes and bam. Installation stopped. So what I found that helped me is this. Not sure if you have an external hard drive but this is what I did.

    I put my external hard drive as the default because of the amount of xbox games I have that aren't capable with the series x upgrade. Uninstall the game and put the disk in and reinstall it onto your external hard drive. if it asks, say yes to the upgrade, it will then ask if you would like to put the game on the internal storage so that it works better. Put install onto the external hard drive anyways. It will then start installing. Once finished, go to your external hard drive and move it into the internal hard drive and now let that beautiful upgrade happen. Now you have your game installed and your upgrade happening as well. HAPPY GAMING!

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

    Remove the disc from the console, do these 2 steps below, and try again, please.

    Step 1: Clear the storage cache on your console.

    Press the Menu key on your controller.
    Click Settings, devices & streaming, and then go Blu-Ray.
    Select Persistent Storage.
    Click Clear Persistent Storage 3 times

    Step 2: Power cycle your console.

    Turn off the Xbox console by pressing the Xbox button on the front of the console until it shuts down completely.
    Unplug the console's power cable, wait 10 seconds. Be sure to wait 10 seconds, this step resets the power supply. 
    Plug the console power cable back in, turn on your Xbox.

    When you turn off your console, remove your external hard drive and try to install the game without the external hard drive connected to the console.

    Tried to re-download again to the internal hard drive and it made it to 38% before stopping which was enough to start the game. Stopped the installation and I was able to use the copy on my external hard drive again. I guess it re-downloaded enough to clear
    what ever issue my console was having with the game.
