    Hello Destiny,

    I understand you're having issue with a disc game installation. Does it stop at a specific percentage? Please try to do this:

    1. Eject the disc from your console.

    2. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    3. Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Storage devices.

    4. Select Clear local saved games.

    5. Select Yes to confirm.

    1. Press the Xbox button to open the guide.

    2. Select Profile & system > Settings > General > Network settings. Select Go offline.

    GTA V won’t let me play

    thanks for replying :) when the Xbox was bought, it was bought with gta on it already so when I set it up, all i had to do was download the game and I didn’t need the disc. I have been playing on gta5 since December with no worries and now it won’t let me
    play.

    I have made sure that the console is set to it’s home console and it still won’t work. What do you mean when you say that the license was taken away?

    Now when you say it had the game on it already did you buy the system used and the game was already on it?

    Or did it come with a little card that had a 25 digit code on it that you would have put into the system on a profile?

    Or when you turned the system on it was automatically showing up in the ready to install section of my games and apps?

    Was there any other profiles on the console already when you bought it?

    Modern Warfare Not Downloading on Xbox Series X from Network Transfer

    Now I finished downloading everything except Forza Horizon 2 and for some weird reason no matter how hard I try to get it to show up in queue it won’t. I don’t know whats going on with this, and I keep putting and taking out the disc to get it to work like my other games I had issues with and it still won’t pop up on my Xbox in queue. Do I need to do the same as above?
