Starting games and updating them

Hello @khalilwilliams1637, I hope everything is going well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support!

I highly recommend following the troubleshooting steps here:

After each step try to see if the issue is fixed!

First, hold down the power button for about 10 seconds, until the console shuts off, then unplug the power cord and wait for 2 to 3 minutes before plugging it back in and turn on the Xbox.

If the issue persists, please select System > Settings > devices and streaming > blue ray > persistent storage > clear three times > restart console.

If you are still having the same issue, it’s possible that the local save for the game has become corrupted. If so, deleting the local save and re-syncing with the cloud might correct the problem.

First, delete the local save:

1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide and then select My games & apps > See all > Games.

2. Highlight the game title, and then press the Menu button on your controller.

3. Select Manage game and add-ons > Saved data.

4. Select Delete all to remove the local save of this game, then follow the prompts.

After you delete the local save, restart your Xbox:

1. Press and hold the Xbox button in the center of your controller.

2. Select Restart console, then follow the prompts.

After you restart your Xbox resync your saved games to the cloud. Your saved games are automatically stored in the cloud while you are connected to Xbox Live.

Try playing the game again to see if re-syncing with the cloud corrected the game problem.

If you are still encountering the same issue, please select System > Settings > System > Console info > Select Reset console > Choose reset and keep my games and apps.

I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out!

Kind Regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming

In Settings, there's one setting called "Keep my games and apps updated" and if that is checked it is very plausible that, like 2Bad4You says, there were game updates happening. 68GB is entirely reasonable for a few game updates these days. You can uncheck
that to stop the console from performing updates automatically in future without your knowing. Without automatic updates you'd be forced to do start them manually, or have a pop-up when you start a game saying "there's an update available" that prevents you
loading the game until the update is complete. But if data caps are an issue, then updating games as and when you want to play them could be preferable to having them be done automatically in the background.

You should delete all of the Title Updates for this game and then re-start it to get the latest update. ACB keeps all of the updates in game folder under System Settings. Navigate there and delete them and then you should get the latest version again when
you re-start the game.

I don't know why but my original games update everytime I start them ever since the NXE update. Maybe your games need an update to be compatible with the new dashboard.

Once you download the launcher +/- 1GB, you start the game. It will search for updates and install them

Assuming you’re on PC. Xbox has both internal game updates, as well as traditional updates.
