    Xbox cache issue. Can't play games.


    So ever since the last xbox update I have been having an issue where my games simply stop working. I can't even move through the menus on Battlefield 4 and on Forza 5 the game won't even start up. Clearing the cache will fix the issue 100% but it comes back
    every time I shut off the console or when I leave it on for too long. This means every time I start up the console I have to do the long cache clearing. It is really annoying. Is this a fixable issue?

    :)

    Weird Glitch

    I have had the tv issue where it says it took to long to find the tv. The only thing so far that fixes that issue is the cache reset. You dont need to unplug, cache reset will do the same thing. I find this usually happens if i switch my tv with the xbox one from the xbox to a dvd player using another hdmi port on the tv. When i go back to the original xbox hdmi on the tv, it loses the pairing with the tv causeing the tv took to long error. Resetting cache or unplugging is the only known fix so far. Have not had the other issues you mentioned.

    Xbox One cache issue

    Unless you really want to redownload all of your items, I would not suggest doing a factory reset, as there is no proof that is actually helps anything.

    The rumor is that there is a cache issue, but that hasn't been confirmed at all. No one really knows what exactly is causing the problems.

    A quicker fix to your problem than doing a hard reset (pressing the power button for 5-10 seconds, waiting until you hear a click, and then waiting for the power brick turns amber before turning it back on), is to highlight the app/game that is causing you
    trouble, press the start button, then select quit. This works 99% of the time for me.

    Memory leaks are entirely a software problem, so they can technically fix it without new hardware.

    Xbox One cache issue

    by doing a reset helps ironing out issues what where in an update for example when I had my 360 if there was issues with the dashboard or the avatar characters had missing items by doing a simple task to re download the update to reinstall it to that console
    to iron this issue out but the XB1 has not got this facility so reset is the only option it is my opinion it work alright for me.

    Xbox One cache issue

    The OS is Windows 8, but modified. Heavily modified.

    The software is the same on the consoles (besides people in the beta).

    The Xbox, like all huge software systems, is extremely complex. These issues could appear more frequently depending on your use of the system. For a theoretical example, the friends app may be causing some memory to not be freed up, or the Netflix app forgets
    to close a process when it isn't running. So if you use the friends and Netflix apps, you will more frequently run into these errors. These obviously aren't the real errors, and the sandbox environment setup with Win8 is supposed to prevent these errors, but
    hopefully that gives you the general gist of why it may be occurring more on your Xbox than others.

    The OS is a modified version of Windows 8. Heavily modified.

    The code/software is the same across all the consoles.

    The Xbox, and most large software systems, are extremely complex. The software isn't "faulty," but there could be certain operations that cause problems. The issues are of varying degrees, definitely, and that is why there isn't just a clean fix. For a completely
    theoretical example, there might be a resource not being freed up when going into the friends app, or a process that keeps running when you open up the store, so people using those apps/services will have problems, while other people won't.

    Xbox One cache issue

    The OS is Win 8.

    Why would the software be faulty on some people's xbox ones but not others? Or the issues are of varying degrees?

    Wouldn't the software be standard and uniform, the code the same on all consoles?
