    Xbox One Won't Start Installing a Game


    Edit: This issue has fixed itself.

    My Xbox One can't even start installing everything. From what I can tell, the servers are all stable, and the common fixes like reseting the router didn't help either. The Xbox One is also up to date, so that isn't causing this either.

    I discovered this while attempting in download the latest Minecraft Beta update. Everyone got the update, except for me.

    I uninstalled the game, which on its own took about 4 minutes. Then, it was the common "Installation Stopped" message when I tried to download it. I restarted the console, and now when I try to install it, it won't even start the installation.

    Won't even start as in, it won't even say it's installing. I press "Install" and literally nothing happens. I also tried to download an update for an app, and the update no longer shows as available, but never downloaded.

    If I leave the console on, it eventually tries to download Minecraft on it's own, even if I never pressed install, but it stays at 0% forever and cannot be cancelled.

    As a side note, I tried starting the Master Chief Collection, and now the Xbox is trying to redownload that entire game as well, to no avail.

    It's been doing this for 2 hours now, and nothing seems to fix it. Is there sonething I can do, or is my Xbox dead?

    :)

    Discs still reading after install? Downloads in the background when off? (not in standby)

    The disc still is reading when you're playing the game, even if it's installed on your system (requirement on Xbox One). When you start downloading/installing a game, it won't download when the console is off. This was the SAME on the Xbox 360; you had to
    have your Xbox on to download any games. Don't worry about the wear and tear, it running like that won't hurt the Xbox, they are made for that.
