    Recovering game data after factory reset


    So I recently had to do a factory reset on my Xbox one to fix a connection problem of course it asked me if I was OK with losing game data and I said yes but I’ve also been told that my game data will not be lost, I went through the factory settings and logged back into my Microsoft account and I am trying to recover my games as they are not showing up on the ready to install and I also don’t have a ready to install option what do I do

    :)

    Recovering game data after factory reset

    Without going through Ready to Install, you'd have to just look up the games in the store and redownload.

    To find Ready to Install, make sure when you go to Games and Apps go to Full Library and then under games you should be able to filter by ready to install.

    Trying to recover game data after factory resetting

    Hi, Iulian! Thank you for reaching out.
    I'm AJ, an Independent Advisor for the Xbox Community.
    I'm sorry you are experiencing issues with Forza Horizon 4 and 5.

    If you don't mind, could you check if these games are showing on your account's order history? As a rule of thumb, all games purchased through the Microsoft Store, redeemed with a code, or claimed from a console bundle should be displayed there, regardless of the date they were acquired on.

    You can use this link to get there: https://account.microsoft.com/billing/orders

    Please make sure to select "Digital" and "All available" from the two drop-down menus at the top section of your order history.

    * If these games are not on your account's order history, they may have been purchased using a different account. I'd suggest checking all the accounts that were on your console before the factory reset to determine which one was used to acquire these games.

    ----------

    To clarify, when you say you can't find your game progress anywhere, do you mean in the Demo?

    ----------

    Details about resseting my xbox

    Hello DeepBracelet6o5,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums. We understand that you are interested in learning how a factory reset affects your accounts, games and saved data. You can perform a

    full or soft factory reset
    . A full factory reset will remove all games, applications and profiles from the console. The soft factory reset keeps games and applications installed, but it does remove all the profiles from the console. You will be able to
    download your profiles back to the console once you get back to the home screen. Your saved data is uploaded to the

    Xbox cloud
    as long as your console is connected to the internet. This will allow you to recover your saved data when you move your profile from console to another. So you will be able to recover that as well after a factory reset. The article we provided
    explains more about factory resetting your console. We hope this information helps!

    Saving game data after factory reset

    Hi IsaacStoneWolf.

    My name is Mauro and am glad to assist you.

    No, you will not lose as long as you have a back up or you have them sync with the cloud.

    While you’re connected to the Xbox network, saved games are automatically stored in the cloud. If you use your Xbox profile to sign in to a different Xbox console, your saves are available from that console.

    For more information:

    Thanks,
    Mauro
