Xbox one won't launch games!!!

I've had my xbox for one day and have had so many problems when trying to play games. First game I installed was COD: Ghosts it took two installs to get it working! And I still can't play online with it! I've also been out and purchased battlefield 4 and
dead rising 3, Battlefield did work while I was offline but once I reconnected to xbox live the game would not launch, it does attempt to but instantly jumps back to the home page, I have re-installed the game three times now and have twice offline and once
while only and still nothing! I have tried every thing other Then a factory reset! If anyone has had this problem please tell me what you did to fix it. Note: This is not the tray grinding.

Xbox one won't launch games

Hi Guys,

Just recently I have been trying to install Homefront, but my Xbox won't launch the game to install it, I thought it was a faulty game, but with further research and mucking around I have come to the conclusion that it is actually my Xbox..

Now the Xbox seems to read the games, as if I have the game installed I can put the disc in, go to my games and apps, and click on the game app and launch it manually, but if I don't have the game installed I can not launch it in anyway, my Xbox just doesn't
want to play the game...

Any help would be great as 2 days ago I inserted gears of war 4 and it was fine, but now..

Thanks.

Hey BlastMasterr! Have you tried installing other disc games? Additionally, if you haven't already, give
these steps a shot and see if they help resolve your issue. Post back and let me know!

This was happening to me... the solution that worked for me may sound obvious, but I didn't know to try it, so you may not either:

If you hold down the power button on the front of the Xbox One and count to eight before releasing, it'll do a hard shutdown rather than going into sleep mode. That seems to clear the cache. Then when it restarts, functionality may be restored.

 

1: Push the console power button for 5-10 seconds until I turns off

2: Unplug the power cord from the console - (has to be from the console)

3: Wait 30 seconds

4: Plug back in and power up console with button

Should hopefully be working okay now. If not let us know

In addition to what Big said - unplug the power from the console

 

Hi i have the same problem and have try all the solution i could find including yours.

I have 3 downloaded games : Forza 5, death rising and FIFA + 1 physical game : Lego marvel

To be clear :

1 - i'm on the home page/i insert the disc/i speak the command

2 - game start booting

3 - then i'm back to the home page

 

I had a similar problem after the last update. I could play anything new that I downloaded, but nothing I had played in the last 2 weeks would make it past the splash page. The Hard shutdown did fix my problem.

1: Push the console power button for 5-10 seconds until I turns off

2: Unplug the power cord from the console - (has to be from the console)

3: Wait 30 seconds

4: Plug back in and power up console with button

 

Like i SAID, i have already done it (unplug from console include), thanks for trying to help me but i need something new.

 

I am having trouble getting past the sign in mode.
