    Why does my Xbox not recognise any disc games?


    Currently, all my disc owned games have exclamation marks next to them suggesting they’re unplayable. So when I insert the disc it doesn’t register them to start up, so if I click on the game in my games and apps it constantly says to insert the disc. Any help?

    :)

    Skate 3

    Hi there - have you tried cleaning the disc? Does the Xbox recognise the disc as Skate 3?

    MW2 on Xbox one and One S... Same account, but cant play on my S.

    One S is digital only.... Using disc on my 'main' xbox, like playing games on 'spare' occasionally.
    That would be why. When you buy a disc game, the disc is primarily used to prove ownership and so the disc has to be in the drive all the time you play the game. As the One S is digital only, you can't put the disc in thus the system does not recognise you own the game hence the purchase prompts.

    Unfortunately, in order to play it on your One S, you will need to purchase the digital version of it

    Xbox loading my profile. But games not working?

    Be more specific.

    Do you get an error message?

    Does is not recognise that a disc is in the drive?

    Does it happen to downloaded games?

    Can't play any backwards compatible discs on Xbox One X

    Hi mturner3,

    After I posted this, I tried inserting one of the new backwards compatible game discs (Max Payne 2, from the original Xbox console) into my Xbox One X, and got the same error message. As soon as I connected the Xbox One X to my phone hotspot and reinserted the disc, it recognised it immediately and started downloading. I then switched back to my normal internet via local WiFi and it recognised the disc still.

    I have no idea why this would fix it? I am sorry if this hasn't worked for you.

    Cheers

    Dave
