Saving progress locally for an xbox compatible game on Xbox Series X console

I have apparently maxed out my storage on the cloud as far as original and 360 xbox save games go. I heard it was capped at 2 GB of cloud storage but I have not found a way to see how much or what I actually have saved. I did the painstaking task of going through each game I have digitally to check for and delete any save data. I still am getting the error “5MB over” for data space somI am unable to start/save any new games using the Xbox series X. I don’t have the physical discs or Xoxox 360 anymore so not a way I can go back and delete those cloud saves.

My questions are;

-Is there a way to navigate my cloud storage by some other way rather than going through my digitally library, game-by-game, to delete content?

-Is there a way to save backward compatible games locally to the Xbox series X so that I may continue to enjoy my digitally purchased backwards compatible games?

-If both the above questions are aswnered negatively, does anyone know if there is a more user/consumer f influence solution being worked on or developed to Alicia the some of the frustration from the above?

The answer to all 3 questions is no.

There is no way to navigate cloud storage by some other way.

There is no way to have your saves for your back compat games to be saved just locally on the consoles drive.

At the moment there is no user or consumer influence solution being worked on.

Hi there, you're welcome! No please don't delete the games you have installed. There should be an option on Xbox series S as well to delete local save storage for xbox 360. Since Xbox 360 backwards compatible games also runs on Xbox one up to Xbox series X.

Try going to Settings > System > Storage > Clear local Xbox 360 storage this option should show up. It will delete the saved games locally but the cloud saves will remain.

Yes. Xbox One games are compatible with the Series S/X and your progress will carry over.
