My Forza 5 downloads then when reaches 20% it says installation stopped, not sure why and when I keep trying to re install it keeps doing it, please help

I have the same issue when I got a software update on my xbox series s all my things started bugging but I fixed them up but I only have one problem now that I can't download any games or update them I don't know why but ya all it says installation stopped and it say try later when my internet is fast even tho I can run call of duty warzone 2 perfectly fine with no lag i suspended my game but still nothing but when i restarted it started downloading but very very slow and then like 1 min passed and it says installation stopped i think it has to do with the software update because i was fine until i updated my xbox software and if it not that then I don't know what it really is my xbox series s is not in a bad environment either it is in a open space where it can breath its super clean I don't know the cause of this but I hope I don't have to purchase a new xbox over a bug in the system I also tried the power cycle10 sec unplug and everything the xbox helper thing told me to do nun worked

yes i have done all the above..if i have it connected via ethernet it is fne but when i go to use the wifi it wont work,,says console is connected but when i try to access my games says a connection error,,, does it on my series s and my xbox one s .. and a friends series x is doing it

It says "Optimized for series X/S. IT should say "Only for series X/S. Why does Microsoft try to hide this with a little red circle popup note "not playable on this device" If it's not playable then keep it off my Game Pass ultimate and store

that I pay $16.99 monthly for.
