xbox one error 0x80830003 - 120GB free space!

Nicola Coglan · Aug 13, 2022

On my Xbox One Series S, multiple games I try and play (Fifa, UFC) i get the above error all the time.

I have deleted games. Removed the external hard drive. I have deleted the MAC address as suggested by others on these forums.

I have over 100GB of space. This only happens on one Xbox and I never get the error on a different one. All updates have been completed.

Please can someone help me get this issue sorted

Hi, Nicola! thank you for your reply.

Most of a console's storage space is available for games and apps, though some is reserved for saved games, console software (OS), and other system functions. That being said, I'm afraid there is no way to tell exactly how much of that reserved space is allocated for saved data. This is mainly because Xbox consoles automatically back up our saved data in the cloud when connected to the internet, which means that even if we were to delete everything from our consoles, there would still be a backup on the cloud at all times.

May I ask if the steps from my initial reply work?

How do you find out how much space you have for saved data?

I dont understand if there is available storage why they cant be used for saved data? Seems like a very poor design

Hi, Nicola! thank you for reaching out.

My name is AJ, I'm an Independent Advisor for the Xbox Community.

I'm sorry to hear you are experiencing some issues with your console.

This error means your console has run out of space for saved data, which is not exactly the same as the 100GB of free space it has.

• You can some space by going to My games & apps > choose one of your games > Manage game & add-ons > Saved data > select your profile > "Delete from Console". This will delete the local saved data for that specific game.

• If you'd like to delete all local saved data, you can do so by going to Settings > System > Storage devices > Clear local saved games.

If the previous steps didn't work, please give this a try.

• Factory reset:

- Go to Settings > System > Console info > Reset Xbox Keep games and apps.

Just keep in mind you will need an internet connection and your account details (email and password) to complete the set-up process.

*** Resetting your console to its factory defaults erases all accounts, saved games, settings, and home Xbox associations. Anything not synchronized with Xbox Live will be lost. If your console has been constantly connected to the internet and Xbox Live services, your saved data should be backed up on the cloud.

I hope this helps! please let me know if you have any other questions.

Best regards.
