    Muted Mic Symbol

    If I do a soft factory reset will all my game data save? I won’t loose all my progress in the games I’ve played?

    Gameshare interfering with game pass

    Hey Ricardo, it’s just one game (rainbow six siege) that won’t let me play, all my other games I can play, online as well which means my gold still works and my buddy who bought the one game(rainbow six) he can still play it on his console. But since I bought the game pass it the Xbox thinks I don’t have rainbow six and I’ve been playing it for 2-3 years, now after game pass running out it won’t let me play

    Disc drive ( Chinese ) rubbish

    Why does my Xbox series x 87 days old not play any disc whatsoever ?? Won’t play Xbox one game Xbox 360 dvd or Blu-ray won’t play anything it’s the 5th Xbox on the spin to do this ? What’s going on with these crappy drives and power mode ( Microsoft won’t admit there’s a massive problem with their disc drives ! That’s facts
    YouTube has like 50 videos of people not being able to play a game they own on disc I think I’ll get full refund and buy PS5 no way will a Sony product not read discs

    Game won’t play

    Hello RussLewis2! I'm Claus, an Independent Microsoft Community Consultant for Xbox! Glad to be able to help you!

    If your game is freezing while you are trying to play it, there are quite a few things that can be done while attempting to fix it. I'll send you some procedures you can try to do, and then let us know afterwards if you've been able to get the game working. First, follow these steps:

    1. With the console on, press and hold the Xbox button on the console itself until it shuts off.

    2. Unplug it from the wall for 30 seconds.

    3. Connect it to wall again.

    4. Turn it on.

    5. Try to run the game and see if the issue has been resolved.

    If it doesn't work, try to reinstall the game. If this also doesn't work, check if you can move it to a different storage device. If after doing this it also doesn't work, it would be necessary to perform a factory reset while keeping games & apps installed.

    Make sure that you know the login credentials to all Xbox Live profiles currently signed in on your console, because they will be removed (including any games/subscription sharing with Home Xbox switches). Follow these steps:

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    2. Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Console info.

    3. Select Reset console.

    4. On the Reset your console? screen, select Reset and keep my games & apps.

    5. After you select one of the options, your Xbox console will begin the process of erasing the selected content and resetting itself to the default settings.

    6. Sign in to your account and set up the console.

    7. Check if the game works.
