Xbox series s power outage

Hi and thanks for reaching Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'll be happy to assist you out today.

Hope you're doing great today Ryder

Usually these things happens. Your Xbox should be fine if this is the first time that you experience something like this.

Thank you, Should I plug it into a power point not an adapter.

Hi,Jace! I'm Luis, a fellow Xbox Gamer . Thanks for reaching us out here.

Let´s first try resetting the power supply

Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One X, and Xbox One S have an internal power supply that works in all regions worldwide. If your console won't turn on, it may simply need a power reset. Often, power issues are due to the power supply resetting after a power surge.

To reset the internal power supply, follow these steps:

Unplug the power cord from the console.

Wait 10 seconds.

Plug the cord back into the console, and then press the Xbox button  on the front of the console.

Also, was there any power outage that you know of when you left?

Hi, Сергей my name is Jhon, and will be a pleasure help you

A sudden power outage can be harmful to your Xbox Series X and the inserted disc, but the risk depends on several factors and the severity of the outage:

For the Xbox Series X:

Short outage: A brief surge or blink in power without complete cut-off is unlikely to cause any damage.

Extended outage: Longer outages, especially if frequent, can increase the risk of data corruption, hardware damage, or loss of progress in your current game.

Hard drive vs. SSD: The SSD in the Series X is more resistant to corruption than traditional hard drives, but it's not immune.

Surge protection: Using a surge protector can significantly reduce the risk of damage from voltage spikes during power restoration.

For the inserted disc:

Scratches: The sudden stoppage of the disc drive during a power outage can potentially scratch the disc.

Data corruption: In rare cases, sudden power loss while spinning can corrupt disc data, causing the game to become unplayable.

Tips to minimize the risk:

Use a surge protector: This will help protect your console and disc from voltage spikes during power restoration.
Quick resume feature: Utilize the Quick Resume feature to minimize data loss in case of sudden outages.

Shut down properly: When possible, always shut down your Xbox properly before potential power outages.

Invest in a UPS: If power outages are frequent in your area, consider a Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) to provide temporary power during outages, allowing you to shut down your console safely.

You mean xbox one s

Not series ?

Xbox series s isn't the same as xbox one s

Xbox one games are just xbox one games .

Series consoles have s or x requirements physical or digital plus the power difference
