    If it's not launching, try fully turning off you xbox and back on if that fails your probally have to uninstall and re download it.

    Xbox One keeps turning off when launching a game or app

    I woke up this morning jumped on xbox to play some Destiny 2. I was playing the game fine for about 20 minutes when my xbox randomly turned itself off. I turned it back on and now every time I try to launch a game or app the console
    will turn off. Why is this happening everything was fine and now all I can do is turn it on, sign into my account and sit on the home menu as soon as I try to launch any game, app or even the xbox store the xbox will turn off. The fan is working fine so it
    isn't an overheating problem and the power brick is solid green and fine. I would appreciate if I could receive some help on this issue ASAP considering this is my day off of work.

    Splitgate will not start whatsoever.

    New problem. When I did this, the game launched, and when it launched I started up a game of casual, and when I loaded into the game, my Xbox completely shut off on me. This was also happening when I was in the tutorial stage of the game. The Xbox completely turned off 3 times before this 4th occurrence.

    Anyway to fix it? It is currently on my internal storage drive, and I am playing on an Xbox One S. I just want to play the game and my Xbox keeps shutting off.

    Also when it is turning off, I turn it back on, and it chimes and I have the chime feature off on my Xbox, and the chime makes a very scratchy Xbox on sound also, just thought I should throw that in there.

    every time i want to play an xbox 360 game on my xbox series x it forces me to start from the beginning

    i have tried to close the game but keep the xbox on, and that also works, when launching the game after closing it, it keeps the saved game and i can load the last checkpoint.

    so the problem only happens when i turn the xbox off, regardless of i close the game or not before turning the xbox off.

    Xbox One S turns off when launching game

    Hello
    YoungHodgy
    !

    I'm sorry to hear that!

    Try factory resetting your Xbox console by following this link
    Factory reset Xbox console
    .

    Make sure you know your email and password for your Microsoft account because you'll need to redownload

    your profile after the reset.

    Good luck!

    Xbox One S turns off when launching game

    When a console is abruptly turning itself off, this problem typically points to either poor ventilation, or power supply issues.
