Need to Reset My Console

ConsolGamr · Mar 26, 2020

In order to troubleshoot a router performance issue, I plan to reset my console using the 'Reset and Keep My Games & Apps' option. I'm currently in the first month of my most recent XBOX Live Gold 3-month subscription. My questions are:

Will I lose the remaining balance on my 3-month subscription?

Will I lose skins I've purchased within my games?

Will I have to re-input all aspects of the gamer profile I've created for myself (gamer tag, icon ,etc.)? Or is all that saved to my account, and all I have to do is just re-input my account details?

Do I have to set up my security configurations all over again? I've input these over time with considerable guidance from friends and family, so unless I specifically document these now, I won't be able to recall them once I reset the console.

Thank you in advance for any guidance anyone can provide me on these questions.

If you reset your console, will only lose your configuration for that console. What’s cool is that once you log in with you mail and password linked to your gamertag (which will have your datas, achievements, purchases and so on), the console will tell uou
that your old configuration has heen saved on the cloud and you can easily download it.

So no, you will not lose quite anything.

I was going to ask the same, anyways. According to the info here on How to reset your console to factory defaults on
Xbox One

Reset and keep my games & apps. Use this option as your primary choice when troubleshooting. It will reset the OS and delete all potentially corrupted data without deleting your games
or apps. In some cases, if a corrupt game file is causing the issue you're troubleshooting, you may have to choose Reset and remove everything, but you should always start with Reset
and keep my games & apps.

1. You will keep your Xbox Live Gold 3-month subscription.

2. You will also keep the skins you've purchased within your games.

3. You just have to re-input my account details again.

4. Not sure about this one, but you might have to set up my security configurations all over again. Just take a note on your actual configurations in case.

Good luck!

I would suggest reseting your router if that is where the problem is.
