MW2 would not install

derek mccamley · Aug 13, 2023

I tried to install season 5 MW2 and it would not work. Interest connection is stable I tried wireless, normal and cable. I switched off disconnected the power cable waited 5 minutes and tried agin and nothing helped. I uninstalled the game and tried to re install it and the game sits at 0% progress and will not advance

Hello Derek M,

I'm Nilay and I'll be glad to answer your query today.

Try canceling this installation, doing a cache cleanup, and then a reset while keeping games and Apps.

The first is a cache cleanup:

1. Go to xbox press and hold the XBOX power button on your console for 10 seconds until it turns off
2. Wait 10 seconds for it to turn off
3. Wait 1 minute with it off
4. Turn it back on

Xbox One reset keeping Games:

Press the Xbox button to open the panel.
Select system > Settings > System > Console Information
Select Reset console.
Restore and maintain my games and apps.
Rest assured, you won't miss games or saves.

If you have MW2 already Installed from your DVD game... delete it.

Guide Button ->Settings -> System Settings -> Storage -> Games and Apps -> MW2 -> Installed Game.

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today despite this Delta

Is this happening on Xbox, right?
If yes, what console do you have?
If you try installing a different game the issue persist or is this happening only with COD?
And please tell me what did you tried so far to fix this
In that way I can advise you different things or how to proceed

Hi there! This is Ronnie, an independent adviser.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you need help on your game problem.

Please try this:

Press the Xbox One button on your controller.

Go to Settings and select Devices and Connections

In the BLU-RAY section select Persistent Storage.

Next, select Clear persistent storage.

Try the game again.

If that does not work, try resetting the console.

NOTE: This will remove the profiles on your console, make sure that you remember the email and password to your account.

No data or game saves will be lost doing this, everything is backed up to the cloud servers.

1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

2. Select Settings.

3. Select System.

4. Select Console info

5. Select Reset console.

6. Select Reset and keep my games & apps

This will also help sync the data on your console properly.

If in any case this does not work, try other disc games and if other disc games will work, there must be something wrong with the disc copy of your game and I would suggest replacing this already as it might already be corrupted for some reason.

Hope that helps!
