Xbox Series S starts download but stops about 10% of the way in

Jordan M2 · Aug 31, 2023

After the most recent update my Xbox no longer fully downloads anything (games or updates). It will start to download and get about 10% in and stop. It looks like it's frozen and just won't continue. I've run network tests inside of the Xbox and it runs fine and says I am connected to the network.

I've tried power cycling the Xbox, removing local saved games, removing my profile and adding it back in, power cycling my router, resetting the DNS, literally anything I can find regarding this topic and nothing has worked.

Any help would be appreciated.

Hello Jordan M2,

Thank you for posting in the Microsoft Community.

I can see that you're experiencing issues with downloading games and updates on your Xbox Series S. Have you tried clearing the cache on your Xbox? To do this, you can hold down the power button on the front of the console for 10 seconds until it turns off completely. Then unplug the power cable from the back of the console and wait for 10 seconds before plugging it back in and turning the console back on.

If that doesn't work, you can try resetting your console to its factory while keeping your games and apps.

If the issue persists, it may be a hardware issue and you may need to contact Xbox support for further assistance.

We're looking forward to hearing from you. If there are any inquiries about our description or if there are any misconceptions, do reply to the post.

nope, series s or x only, even pc's way more powerful than the series x still struggle, it would be like stop motion on the original xbox one and s models.

What are you trying to install on?

Xbox series x or s or pc?

And no xbox one s or x don't count they aren't even series

Why would you think 10 year old hardware would run a game that give 3-5 year old pcs trouble

Once redeemed on series x or s you download via your ready to install

If you are talking about pc well depends what you redeemed it on xbox app or steam you download via whichever app you download it kn

Expect from mojang and microsoft ray tracing on the xbox series XIX.In the near future, it is not worth it because so far, beta testing is taking place on windows 10 and there is no point in waiting in the near future. Maybe when they finish with windows 10, then they will switch and start working with ray tracing on the xbox series X S. We just need to wait if you think about it, then somewhere in the middle or at the end of 2021, there will be an update for the Xbox Series X Series.
