  1. MS how it is this hard to get it right, stop forcing Xbox insider updates mid game!


    This has now happened twice to me in a month, middle of a game and just just get booted to an update screen that forces me to update, or sets me offline, either way booting me out of my online game.

    Before anyone asks Auto-updates are switch on and Xbox is in instant-on mode, so it should be doing these when the Xbox is off/I'm not playing.

    Get it together please MS.

    Forced update mid game!!?

    Hi,

    The type of update you experienced was a Mandatory update where you are forced to do the update at that time. I know this won't help from before, but going forward you can set your Xbox automatically update each night using the instructions here ( https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/console/system-update-overview
    ) or listed below:

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    2. Select Settings > All settings.
    3. Select System > Updates.
    4. Under Console, select Keep my console up to date if it isn’t already.

    After that is done make sure your Xbox is set to Instant-On mode so that it can search for updates while off here ( https://support.xbox.com/en-US/xbox-one/console/learn-about-power-modes ):

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    2. Select Settings > All settings.
    3. Select Power & startup > Power mode & startup. Select Power mode to change the setting.

    Hope this works out for you.

    Xbox force updating mid game

    Set your console to instant on mode. Updates will usually happen when you're not using the console and you'll never notice them.

    Xbox force updating mid game

    Hi there!

    If you are seeing multiple updates like this we would assume you are part of the Insider Preview program possibly in the Alpha or Beta ring.

    If this is the case, then frequent updates are a part of being in that program.

    The Insider program is there to let you test beta programs for the console and provide feedback to the team that is working on the OS.

    This program is not designed for casual use of the console.

    If you do not enjoy the experience of the program and do not want to partake in the testing that it involves we recommend removing the app from your console and

    Factory resetting.


    This will remove you from the program and allow you to go back to the standard scheduled updated process that casual gamers take part in.

    Alternately if you do want to continue to be part of the debug and testing process you could set one console as your test console and then leave a second console as your standard gaming console.

    We understand that may not be plausible for all Gamers but there is no way to avoid the update process in the program as it is part of the stress testing process.

    We do hope this sheds a little light on the program and what is expected when being a part of it.

    We also encourage you to post in the
    Insider forums
    with any feedback you have for the program so that their team can take it into consideration!

    Unplugging Xbox One deletes Updating games/Apps

    If an update is stopped mid point, it will remove the game/app. This is by design to stop corrupted files.

    New Home Screen on Xbox Change

    And the Insider programme have been telling MS how terrible it is for months and yet they still went ahead. The reddit link you posted is also slating the update, as is every other xbox forum. The MS line is that this came from positive community feedback and not because MS execs told the devs they had to force Gamepass into everything even though all community feedback has been negative.
