    XBOX 360 mandatory update wiped out my HDD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    Today, March 26th 2017, I accepted a mandatory update for XBOX Live and it erased everything on my HDD, taking away all my profiles, games, apps, and years of gaming!!!!!!

    The update performed as expected, the console was not turned off during the process and it finalized normally.

    I researched on the internet and this is known issue on XBOX 360, but nevertheless it hasn't been fixed, allowing more customers to loose important information on their HDD.

    Also the update produced other annoying problems like the game controls to disconnect every time I fire (RT)

    This Is totally unacceptable and Microsoft should compensate their paying customers for what happened.

    :)

    A FLASH DRIVE WORKS FOR THE BATTLEFIELD 4 DOWNLOAD IF YOU DON HAVE HARD DRIVE?

    Actually, for Battlefield 4 you will need an official Xbox 360 HDD. USB flash drives and 4GB internal memory are not compatible for the mandatory install file.

    New update wiped out my hard drive

    I didn't bother saving anything to the cloud because i never anticipated that a mandatory update would wipe out my hard drive and all the games i put so many hours into

    August Update

    Wiping HDD's?? Wow, I might just go ahead and finally opt out of this program once and for all. My Xbone has been sluggish after the last two updates came early it seems...It was so damn quick on day one, starting to think these multiple updates could be
    a bad thing...look at how slow the 360 is now...

    Can't get Return to Castle Wolfenstein: Tides of War to run on my Xbox 360

    system update killed my hard drive

    I'm having the same issue on my xbox 360 I have the classic 360 but I have gone through 4 xboxes in 6 years. Everytime one pooped out I had another to replace it. However my current HDD wasn't even two years old from the time I started to use it. I had 63
    gigs left open on my HDD & another 19 gigs on my USB. After tonight's update. June 7 2014. It completely took my HDD offline. Mind you I Recieved two updates one after the wipe. My account checks out fine. I have checked various other forums to find out I'm
    not the only one. Most of the people affected have older model 360s and most of which had 100+ gigs free. All my peripherals & equipment are Microsoft brand from Gamestop, NEX, & Best Buy bought.

    So stop trolling on this guy!!! Seriously if this turns out to be a marketing thing to make people switch to Xbox one there could be a class action lawsuit.

    & one little last thing I also have two current xbox360s my newest one with the wifi built in had no problem after update. And that HDD on that system is full to the max with mostly video content downloaded for my kids. Why only the older system with a larger
    free HDD but with a good condition HDD that gets it's system cache cleared & HDD formatted from time to time.

    Lucky thing is I have my data backed up. But I'm angry because my HDD is not recognized by the 360
