    Why does my Fortnite keep “installation stopped”?


    the new fortnite season came out and it needed an update, i tried to update it but it kept saying “installation stopped”. i tried clearing space on my xbox, uninstalled and reinstalled, these didn’t work. I searched it up and tried many different ways that people suggested like fully resetting my xbox or going offline to update and none of these work. I have update many other games and apps while this has been going on and it is just Fortnite that doesn’t work. If anyone knows what to do i would appreciate any help or advise.

    thankyou

    :)

    Hi Colin! I'll do my best to help.

    What exactly is your Xbox console model?
    You mentioned that you went offline for update, did you use a game disc for Fortnite?

    For our basic troubleshooting, make sure that you still have enough storage on your console then manually search the game through the Xbox Store and install the game there.

    You mentioned that you've already tried to factory reset your console, correct? There's a possibility that it may be a network issue. Try switching from wired to wireless or vice versa. You could also use a different internet source like mobile data hotspot and see if anything changes.

    I have a Xbox One S and i have tried installing many times through the Microsoft store, i don’t have the disk it’s online. I have 130gb free and it is only 47gb, I don’t know what else to try.

    Why does my game keep “ installation stopped”

    Hey there!

    Nice to meet you! My name is Christian, an independent advisor. I'm here to help you out.

    1. Try to check the storage on your drive by doing this workaround:

    Press the Xbox button  to open the guide, and then select the Notifications icon.

    See if there are any notifications about low or unavailable hard drive space. Xbox alerts you when you’re running low.

    If there’s a notification about low hard drive space, you’ll have to either delete content to free up space or add an external drive.

    2. Test you network connection:

    A network connection issue can sometimes affect gameplay. Here’s how to test your Xbox connection:

    Press the Xbox button  to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system > Settings > General > Network settings.

    Note Any outages will appear under Current Network Status.

    On the Network settings screen, select Test network connection. If the connection test is successful, your console will connect to the Xbox service.

    Note If you're prompted to update your console software, select Yes.

    3. Try using a different profile

    Press the Xbox button  to open the guide.

    Select Profile & system, and then select Add or switch.

    Select a profile other than the one you were previously using.

    If you don’t have a different profile set up on your Xbox, you can create a new profile just for testing purposes, or have a friend load their profile onto your console to test the game for you. For help adding another profile to your Xbox console, see:

    Sign in to Xbox

    Now restart the game to see if it works correctly under a different profile.

    If you can play the game with a different profile, go to Step 6: Remove and re-add your profile.

    I hope this helps.
