    Unable to move game to external storage


    Hi, after the update I do not have an option to move a game to my

    external hard drive. It only allows for uninstall for the games on the x

    box one?

    Anybody have this issue? I have enough space on the external hard drive and the games still load from the external hard drive?

    :)

  2. Trouble with internet and external storage devices

    I'm trying to move some games to my external storage device, but the game is there already but it has a different game size as the other one. I don't think I made a copy of that game and It will not move to the external storage device. Do I have to delete
    the small version of the game and then move the bigger one to the external storage device, or will it mess up my game.

    Move External Storage to New Console

    Can I move my external storage from Xbox One to Xbox One S without losing saved games? I'm thinking of buying a new console but don't want to lose my saved games that are on my external drive.

    GTA 5 Kicking Me Out

    Is this game stored on your Internal Storage or External hard drive? If it's on your External Hard drive kindly move it to your Internal Storage then remove the hard drive. This is to check if it's due to the external hard drive.

    Moving things to External Hard Drive (post-August Update)

    Go to Settings, System, Storage then move along to manage storage then view contents and you will see your games press start on what game you want to move then go to manage game and you get the option to move to external hard drive

    Can I transfer data from default hard drive to external hard drive, and if so, how can I?

    Hi,

    you most certainly can copy/move your data between the xbox hard drive and an external hard drive.

    How do I manage external storage?

    In My games & apps, you can view content by storage device. To do this, highlight a game or app, press the Menu button on your controller, and then select Manage game. You will then be able to move or copy content between storage devices.

    More information regarding external storage can be found in the link below.

    You can definitely move your games from Internal Storage to External hard drive.
