Hi

This was something that happened to console in the Alpha Skip ahead tier of the Xbox Insider and was required to fix an operating system fault.

Yes, pretty much everyone who is in Alpha Skip Ahead had to go through it. There was an issue with one of the updates and that was the only way to fix it. https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2018/07/08/new-preview-alpha-skip-ahead-1810-system-update-7-8-18/

Hi

Consoles that are in the Alpha Skip Ahead tier of the Xbox Insider programs had to be factory reset to resolve an issue with the operating system on the console as per the notes below.

Yes. There was an issue with an update in the Skip Ahead program that could only be fixed with a factory reset. https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2018/07/08/new-preview-alpha-skip-ahead-1810-system-update-7-8-18/
