Why are my games and apps suddenly not working on my Xbox series s

Hi, Steve! Thank you for reaching out.
I'm AJ, an Independent Advisor for the Xbox Community.
I'm sorry you are experiencing issues playing your games.

If you don't mind, I'd like to ask you a couple of questions:

- May I ask exactly what happens when you try to launch one of your games? do you get any error codes/messages?

- Do you have any external storage units plugged into your console?

Thank you! I'll be looking forward to your reply.
Best regards.

Hi. The controller I have is "PowerA Enhanced Wired Controller for Xbox Series X|S". There is a section for PowerA in verified controllers. It use to work for me just fine for over a year. I am not sure why suddenly it is not working. Any ideas?

I have been wondering why my HBO Go app suddenly quit working. It was working on my cell phone. So, I wasn't sure why it wouldn't connect through my Xbox 360. Thank you xsupadupaflyx. Although this solution is a hassle, it works! At least you don't have
to reconnect your HBO Go account to your Xbox 360. My app now works thanks to your suggestion! Thanks again!

I'm on the Xbox Series S. It does say "Completed" and I just checked my games and apps and there not there.

You are misunderstanding how it works

You can pre-order games all you want doesn't mean you can download and play series s/x consoles games

Xbox one games are just xbox one games it doesn't matter which xbox one you have all xbox one games work with xbox one

This is why series consoles are labeled series not xbox one series s
