    Xbox OS - Games & Apps section - Console Types


    What's going on with the Console Type filter across Xbox models? Why isn't there an X Enhanced filter option on the Series X?

    On the One X, it has X Enhanced and Optimised for Series X|S filter options under Console Type. The latter is pretty useless on the One X. However, on the Series X, there is no X Enhanced filter option, when this console gets and plays the X Enhanced versions
    of games. So, this makes it difficult to easily manage your library on the Series X by not being able to sort by X Enhanced.

    On the subject of console types for games, I think there's some confusion over what Optimised for Series X|S actually means. I thought this meant a game had X|S features and would only run from the internal storage or expansion card on the new consoles.

    For example, I've noticed I currently have two games with the X|S logo on their tile in Games & Apps and that appear when you sort by Optimised for Series X|S: Gears 5 and Halo: MCC. When you view the file info, Gears 5 shows as Gen:Scarlett and Halo: MCC
    as GenXbox OS - Games & Apps section - Console Types :Durango. Halo: MCC launches from external storage, regardless of its Optimised for Series X|S status. (I already have Gears 5 on internal storage and didn't want to wait to move it to external storage to see what would happen at the time of posting
    this.)

    Conversely, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint has been updated to add a 60fps Performance mode for Series X|S that is not available in the X Enhanced version on the One X, yet this game does not have the X|S logo on its tile and it doesn't appear when you sort Console
    Type by Optimised for Series X|S, despite having a Series X|S only feature. It also runs from external storage with this new mode accessible on the Series X.

    I know these games haven't been built from the ground up for the Series X|S, but the various labels make for a confusing experience. If we go by the X Enhanced label that came along for the One X, will there be a Series X|S Exclusive label when that time
    comes, as based on the current experience, Optimised for Series X|S doesn't fit the bill for those games?

    :)

    Where's my BC!?

    There is no 360 app. Either put a disc in you own that is on the list or check the ready to install section in the games and app section. Each game comes with its own 360 OS in the download.

    Xbox series s keeps freezing on homepage

    Are you able to access Xbox Settings, or only the Tips app is the one that can be accessed when you go to your games and apps?

    If you're able to access Xbox Settings, it would be better to perform a factory reset.

    Once in settings, you can do this by going to system > console info > reset.

    You can also review the OS version you have when entering the console info section.

    If the OS and Shell version are higher than the ones published in the article I shared below, this means your console is in the Insider program.

    i factory reset my xbox and is telling me there was a problem with the update

    Any error codes?

    Type of xbox? Xbox1 or Series?

    Type of network connection? Wired or WiFi (wireless)

    Is the console in a Insider preview OS?

    Will Destiny 2 really leaves Game Pass tomorrow ? It didn't show up in in app leaving soon tab.

    Yes it will be leaving. It does show on the leaving soon section on the Xbox console and does show on the game pass app as well. The PC version of the game is not affected though. So if you have a PC capable of playing those types of games, then you can at least continue playing on that platform instead.

    Xbox App Muted

    Windows 10

    Version 1803 (OS Build 17134.523)

    Volume Mixer does not have Xbox listed with the other apps. Oddly I did a Reset via the app section and that seemed to have fixed it. Thanks anyways.
