    If you interrupt the update process it will corrupt the game and require a re-download

    Updates are part of modern computing, you need to set your console power settings to standby if you want them to happen offline

    wireless racing wheel DOESNT have a center in games (right or left, no straight forward)

    What he means is that his when driving in the game, the car is always turning. There is no way to keep the car straight. My advice would be to check the sensitiviy. Turn it down a bit if you can. If that does not work, delete the driver, clear system cache

    and reinstall driver.

    Hello there Colt1055!

    Thank you for the update.

    This time, we'll reset the Xbox to default.

    Press the Xbox button

    Select Profile & system

    Select Settings

    Select System

    Select Console info

    Select Reset console

    Choose "Reset and keep my games and apps"

    When resetting the Xbox, make sure that you do not have any offline saves because it will be deleted. But if you are connected to your network when gaming there is no need to worry because your game saves is saved to the cloud and it won't be deleted from the system.

    We will choose: "Reset and keep my games and apps"

    Which means all of your games will remain installed on your Xbox.

    The profile downloaded will be deleted but you always have the option to redownload them.

    Thank you.

    New to Xbox One S/X, Differences in OSU files from Xbox Site?

    I got to know that previous owner left Xbox Insider. Does it mean then that my Xbox will be deleted from Insider? Or something messed up? Quitting Insider Account means deleting Xbox console from it? What then I'll have to do to come back to regular updates?
