"Xbox update preview alpha skip ahead" update/offline download problem build...

Well if he's in the insider programn then he got a update today had the same issue the alpha & apha skip ahead builds are broken for 50% of the people that are ih that group so don't update your console if you're in alpha or alpha skip ahead

I assume you are referring the the Xbox Insider Preview program. Alpha and Alpha Skip Ahead are both invite only, by the development team. These two rings get frequent updates and sometimes the most unstable builds. So if you are not happy dealing with
bugs and reporting them, then no it isn't worth it.

Are you on the Xbox Insider previews? If so, they are changing it for something else. Can't recall offhand but it's in the release notes from a couple weeks back.

Hey there!

There currently is no known solution for this bug, at least troubleshooting wise. It's embedded in the coding and can only be fixed by official Xbox software engineers. I've come across a news article stating the issue is being fixed in the Xbox Insider
Preview update builds. It seems like they have found a solution, now we will just need to wait for it to be implemented in the next live system update.

What software are you referring to?

Here is the article I was referring to:
https://news.xbox.com/2018/10/11/new-preview-alpha-skip-ahead-19h1-build-10-11-18/

The statement is listed under "Fixes".

There was an update for Alpha members addressing network connection issues back at the end of November. Hopefully the wide release is coming soon.
