May 22, 2026 - XBOX Update Preview - Alpha (2606.260520-2200)

Hi BadWolfXT

Seems a long time to wait. From Beta to Omega, and then GA, just to get a OSU1 file thats older than Beta preview the console is on. A Factory reset is quicker than waiting for a file that may not solve a potential hardware issue.

"on my sons console that is not in the beta but has just updated to the may dashboard,".

As far as I'm aware the new dashboard is only available to Alpha and Alpha Skip Ahead previews.

Edit (22-5-2023) A subset of BETA Insider previews have the new Dashboard

"so just like the previous times, once the osu file is higher than what the console is asking for it will update with no issues."

I would investigate your network access if you need to use a OFFLINE System update file (OSU1) all the time. A stable network is required for all the preview updates that Alpha and Skip Ahead receive each week.

Depending on preview, a Insider console is updated several times over the course of preview.

ASA preview is especially demanding of updates, and if one or two are missed, well, lets just say its not convenient.

Thanks gds1972 - I'm not in the Insider program but I read the list of fixes in your link and notice WIFI connectivity problems are known issues. I will wait to see if the next update improves the WIFI connection stability.

If your in the preview the latest update is 1408-140727 2200 you should post in the preview forums not here thanks
