    malware on xbox one s?

    It is not possible to have an infected Xbox. Xbox protects Microsoft servers against viruses.
    And it shouldn't let you go to the dangerous side. If you were on some ??? pages that are doubtful. And something happened to you with your console, so honestly.
    It is your own fault.

    But by default, it is not possible for a virus to get into the Xbox console because it is protected by Microsoft servers.

    Its possible to get malware or any other sort of malicious software on virtually any device. That's why its always advised to do things from a computer or a phone with good anti-virus protections installed. Your console is most likely fine, simply visiting
    a suspicious website isn't enough... often times you would have needed to download something or open something in a pop-up menu.

    Go ahead and clear all your browsing data to be on the safe-side on the Xbox's internet browser. You should be fine. In the future try and do all searching on a computer that's less likely to affected from malware attacks.

    Xbox One S Microsoft Edge Virus/Malware

    The Xbox works very differently to a PC. The OS is far more locked down and apps and games will run "on top" of it rather than integrated into it. Since everything runs in it's own container, it's highly unlikely that you'll be able to get a virus on it
    at all.

    Any viruses that you get on a PC are all through "win32" which doesn't exist on any console.

    The differences between the One and One S are also negligible, apart from the HDR and 4K they are identical in the software side of things. They run in very much the same way.

    Xbox One S Microsoft edge Virus/Malware

    There has been no confirmed virus on Xbox one from Microsoft. Xbox being more and more like a pc means it could more then likely get virus. The likelyhood of that is rare being no hacker will make a virus for the xbox when the code is somewhat different
    then on pc and no person on xbox is normally worth hacking with a virus nor will anyone get anything out of a virus on xbox. As talented and skilled hackers are nowadays then can make a million viruses so quick on pc and just send it off and hack people on
    the pc.
