Respectfully,

Hello and thank you for the response.

To answer question 1: I use a wireless connection. And unfortunately I can't use a wired connection because that would require me to run a lengthy cable and I'm living with my family and they won't let me.

To answer question 2: no I did not move to a different country, I moved probably 10 miles from my previous home.

To answer question 3: the games this happens almost exclusively with are games that I would believe are more demanding on the Xbox, games like I mentioned (SnowRunner, and Farming Simulator 22). However when I experience a freeze it's only during game play. Also I don't really know the difference between a game (crashing and closing to the dashboard) and a game (Freezing and closing to the dashboard). Also sometimes when I'm saving and exiting to the main menu of for example Farming Simulator 22 the game will just close itself before I even reach the main menu.

To answer question 4: I've made sure to update all necessary information regarding my location.

To answer question 5: I'm not really able to try this but I am using a different connection since I moved but the problem started a while after I did move.

I would like to also state that when I think about the games that have the most problems, I realized that for example SnowRunner didn't start (Freezing/crashing) until a certain game update and same for Farming Simulator 22. Also I should mention that all the other games I do play if I did encounter a problem it was only once or twice and eventually those games had updates and the problem seem to go away. So at this point it's probably just the games that have problems that make them (freeze/crash).

Finally in regards to my Xbox profile is there any way for me to know if my account has any issues because none of my game data seems to be messed up and I'm able to login without issues. The thing bothers me the most about this situation is that when I was using my series S way back in 2021 I had no problems and the games that have the most problems I didn't play back then. Once I was able to obtain a series X in March of 2022 I was playing SnowRunner but this was before that game had it "next-gen update" and ever since then SnowRunner has always had a problem in one way or another. So then I thought maybe my series X had a problem so I switched back to the series S and eventually the problems came with it and now I'm back on my series X again still facing the same issues. And at this point I have just uninstalled both games and none of my other games have major problems. So I'm just hoping nothing is wrong with my Xbox profile and that it's just the games having problems.

Thank you for your response. And thank you for reading my very long and probably hard to follow reply.
