Unenrolling from an Xbox Preview

If not wanting to participate in the preview program anymore you can use the preview dashboard app to unenroll yourself from the program.

Just start the app, go to registrations and change the status of your console there.

Please be aware that your unenrolling will be pending until the current wave gets public as you cannot be released during a rolling wave. So once the October preview is rolled out finally you will then be unenrolled from the preview program.

Are you in the preview program by any chance?

I had this the other day after an update. When I checked, I had been in the preview program. Unenrolling fixed it. Best thing to do would be to unenrol from the program and see if the problem persists. Bare in mind that after you unenrol, you will have to
run through the initial setup of your xbox again.

This is just a little misunderstanding as is not the preview registration app you need to use to unregister, but the dashboard preview app.

In the dashboard preview app you find a tile named "registration". Click this tile and change the status of your console there. You will then be unenrolled from the preview program as soon as the current wave has gone public. Until then you will see the
status "unenroll pending".

If you are getting forced downloads, then you are probably in the Xbox Preview program. To stop them, you can unenroll the console from the program using the insider hub app, which you can download from the store. Once downloaded, start the app, then
go to settings and unenroll the console.

As far as I'm aware the New Experience Dashboard is only available to select consoles enrolled in a Xbox Insider preview OS. You would have to unenroll the console from the preview. Use the Insider Hub to unenroll. The General Available OS will be installed once you leave the preview.
