    Xbox One turning off when switching between applications


    Okay, so this is an odd one and due to not being around my Xbox often, I won't be able to troubleshoot immediately, but occasionally I am having an issue where I will be doing something on my system, game, Netflix, etc, and I will try to switch to something
    else, and instead of loading the new application, the system simply shuts off. No error code, turns right back on like it never happened if I go up and press the power button, simply turns off. Worth noting that it does NOT send the signal to power off my
    controller, which starts searching for signal the moment the system powers down. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this would happen? It doesn't happen every time, but it's often enough to get on my nerves.

    :)

    Xbox turning off when switching channels.

    I have my xbox plugged into my computer using only a HDMI cable. Whenever I switch between using the computer and the Xbox the Xbox just completely resets. Any ideas how to stop this?

    Don't switch inputs.

  4. Xbox One turning off when switching between applications

    Hi, it is a known issue, and the Xbox team are working on it. For now it's best to quit the application or game before switching to another one. That will stop the console from shutting down.

  5. Hello, nictheman123!

    So, it could be that your console is experiencing some sort of glitch and needs to be cleaned of excess data in persistent storage.

    I would recommend following the steps in

    Unbelievable connection problems with the controller

    Hi Light, Does the controller stay turned on or does it switch itself off when trying to connect to your Xbox One? Do you have anything between yourself and your Xbox One that could potentially interfere with the signal between your controller and the console?
    Does your Kinect sensor work okay?

    Achievement glitched

    I am curious as to how it happened though? The only thing I can think of would be: every once and a while I turn off notifications or the fact that I switch between the 360 and the Xbox one??
