    What is taking up my storage?


    I have a Xbox series s that I used to play games on and I'm trying to install a game and I can't fit it with my storage. After looking at the games I have installed and adding they're storage I don't know why there isn't enough space. There should be an extra 80 gigabytes. What should I do?

    :)

    What is taking up my storage?

    Hi, my name is Marvina and I will be happy to help you.

    I'm sorry you have this problem. Follow the instructions below for a solution.

    The first thing you should know is that this is a public support forum for the Xbox community, which means that we are players like you, we are not employees of Xbox or Microsoft.

    You can set individual drives to be the default installation locations based on the type of content you want to install.

    To configure them:
    Press the Xbox  button on your controller to open the guide.
    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Storage devices.

    Select Change installation locations.
    You can select a specific drive to be the default installation location for games and applications.

    If you choose the Let Xbox decide option, the system will prioritize installations that require storage on faster drives (such as internal storage or a storage expansion card), but you can still install content on a drive. slower disk if it is the only one that has enough space for that specific download.

    Note Options for content type may vary depending on the type of console you are playing on, as not all consoles have the same type of game optimization features.

    There are other options that can help you free up space:
    Press the Xbox  button on your controller to open the guide.
    Select Profile & system > Settings > System > Storage.

    On the Manage Storage Devices screen, select:
    Delete locally saved games. This will delete the games saved on the hard drive, but they will still be saved in the cloud.

    Clear Xbox 360 local storage. This will delete your locally saved Xbox 360 games, but they will remain in the cloud.

    Remaining addons are the items left after uninstalling a game. To remove remaining add-ons or games that can be reduced in size:
    Press the Xbox  button on your controller to open the guide.
    Select My games & apps > See all > Manage > Free up space.

    Select Remaining Add-ons or Games that can be reduced, highlight any item in the list, press the Menu button , and then select Uninstall.

    I hope I can help you solve it.

    Best regards,
    Marvina.

    Downloaded game not showing up but still taking up storage.

    Nope, nothing. I've deleted everything off the usb and i still don't have enough room because the 7gb is taken up. I suppose I'm going to have to get a new usb?

    Downloaded game not showing up but still taking up storage.

    It might not show up as Black Ops 2, it might be under the title "unknown" If you have any file that the xbox states is unkown, you should delete them.
