    Why are updates - on ANY device - constantly failing?????


    I've got an Xbox One S, an Xbox Series X and a Windows Laptop. There's been a host of issues in the past 2 months with updates failing, needing to reset consoles, and so on, but it's now got to a point where I'm seriously considering selling the whole bloody lot and going with Sony.

    Can anyone from this community please, please explain why updates:

    - won't be found

    - won't start

    - won't complete

    - fail/stop

    I have done hundreds of gigabytes of space, have set the 'second' console up as home console, but no matter what I do these updates just do not work and it's getting worse and worse and worse. Currently there's a Fortnite update that won't update on either console, an Apex Legends update that the Xbox One S won't/can't even 'find' so the game won't/can't launch, a Forze update that stops at about 2Gb. To cap it off, I tried to download a game (Full Throttle) to my laptop via the Xbox App, and it spent an hour "preparing" and it's STILL at 0%.

    The consoles are all updated, but it just seems an absolute (mod Removed) of a system. Is there some issue with having multiple devices on Gamepass? Am I doing something obviously wrong? All devices are connected to the internet, is there an issue with my service provider? Home hub? I'm giving it til Friday, then if somebody wants a laptop, Xbox One and Xbox Series X, I'm open to offers. Absolutely sick of Microsoft and these escalating issues.

    :)

    Hello Nedders77,

    Sorry to hear you are having problems updating games your consoles and PC. When did this start happening?

    Can you tell me what error you are seeing when you try to update your game? Are you getting a specific error code?

    On your PC, do you have any antivirus, antimalware, VPN, firewall and PC Optimizer installed in the PC that may be interfering?

    Having multiple devices on GamePass does not affect your service, however logging into the same account on multiple devices at the same time will cause you to disconnect from the previous session.

    Here are some troubleshooting steps you can follow to see if it helps alleviate any of the issues.

    Xbox one controller cuts out/disconnects

    Are there any solutions to this issue yet? It seems that after the July update, and controller firmware update, I've started having this issue. The controller will constantly disconnect after 15-20 mins without fail. I've been fine until the last updates.
    It's getting ridiculous after a month or so of this issue.

    Any solutions yet?

    Hi Shinib,

    Thanks for reaching out to us in the forums with this issue. Sorry to hear that you're getting error codes and having trouble with updating your Xbox One console. If you're receiving errors in relation to your system (usually begins with an "E"),
    then you'll want to troubleshoot using our Xbox One Startup Error Solution. Any other type of
    error codes can be looked up using our Error & Status Code Searchfor troubleshooting steps.

    Additionally, if your profile or console are enrolled in our Preview Program for Xbox Insiders, the troubleshooting may not work as intended. If you are an Xbox Insider, we recommend reaching out on the
    Xbox Insiders Reddit pagefor further help.

    You can also report this problem using the Xbox Insider Hub app on your console or from PC (even if not an Xbox Insider) so we can investigate it further:

    1. On your console, install the Xbox Insider Hubapp (if you don’t already have it).
    2. Hold down the Xboxbutton on the controller.
    3. On the power menu, select Report a problem.
    4. Describe the problem in detail, including when it happened, if you saw any specific error codes or messages, and if you were using any specific games, software, hardware, or accessories when you encountered the problem.

    Xbox constantly failing updates.

    If you are in the insider/preview program you should report the problem to that group.

    Try performing a hard reset EXACTLY like this. Hold the power button on the console for 8 seconds or until the power shuts down completely.
    Unplug the power cord from the back of the console for 5 minutes.
    Plug the power cord back in and restart the console.
