Why is there a button for uploading a custom skin for Minecraft on Xbox yet it doesn’t work...

Hello, xxIc3man336xx. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

Do you want to importa a skin to the Xbox or PC version of Minecraft?

If you play on PC, this can be done by following these steps:

“Launch Minecraft on your Windows device.

Select Dressing Room under your current character.
Select the menu button at the top-left of the screen for more options, and then select Classic Skins.
Select the blank skin model under Owned Skins, and then select Choose New Skin.

Upload your custom skin .png file, and then make sure that it appears as expected on the character model.

Note: Custom skins do not sync between devices. If you want to use a skin across multiple devices where you play Minecraft, make sure to save your file where you can access it easily.

The next time that you load your game or create a new one, your character will be wearing the new skin that you created.”

Please be aware, custom skin can't be uploaded on the Xbox Bedrock edition of Minecraft.

I hope you find this answer helpful to your inquiry. However, I'll remain attentive to any other one you may have.

Regards,

Arturo.

Hello DecentPath656,

Nilay here and I'm glad to answer your query today.

You can use your custom skin on your Xbox One. Here are the steps you can follow:

Upload the skin to the internet: You need to upload your custom skin to a website or a hosting service that can host your skin image online. There are several free websites that can do this for you, such as NovaSkin, MinecraftSkins, or MinecraftSkinShare.

Download the skin to your Xbox: Once your skin is uploaded, you need to download it to your Xbox One. Here's how:

Launch Minecraft on your Xbox One.
Go to the "Help & Options" menu and select "Change Skin".
Choose "Browse Skins".
Enter the URL of the skin you uploaded to the internet in the "Enter a valid URL" field.
Click "Confirm" to download and apply the skin.
Alternatively, you can also transfer the skin to your Xbox using a USB flash drive. Here's how:

Save the skin image to a USB flash drive.
Plug the USB flash drive into an available USB port on your Xbox One.
Launch Minecraft on your Xbox One.
Go to the "Help & Options" menu and select "Change Skin".
Choose "Browse Skins".
Select "Custom" and choose the skin image from your USB flash drive.

Good Luck

Hey Darmi

Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums.

In regards to this matter, we here at the Xbox Forums do not have the tools necessary to effectively troubleshoot creating or applying

custom skins for Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition.

Since this is an in-game issue, if you have a problem uploading your skin to the game, head to the
Minecraft communitypage for more help and info.

I hope this is of some help to you.
