Xbox won't download anything

Discus and support Xbox won't download anything in XBoX on Consoles to solve the problem; I'm getting really frustrated. My wifi works, it's connected, passes speed tests, tested the network, etc. For some reason my entire "Full Library"... Discussion in 'XBoX on Consoles' started by Joan Smithy, Dec 4, 2022.

    Xbox won't download anything


    I'm getting really frustrated.

    My wifi works, it's connected, passes speed tests, tested the network, etc.

    For some reason my entire "Full Library" is just a spinning circle that won't ever load.

    The game store works and I can browse it, but as soon as I select a game instead of the "download" button or even the wish list button, there's just a spinning circle that never ever loads. The trailer will play, internet is clearly working, but it will not let me either download new games or even access archived games I already own.

    I've tried downloading onto my console from the app, and it claims remote access isn't enabled... even though it is.

    It's been over a week.

    I've restarted it multiple times, changed the DCS thing to 8888 and 8844 or whatever, nothing changes. Is my console just screwed??

    :)

    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community.

    My name is Josef.

    I'm an Independent Advisor

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Joan

    May I know if you already tried clearing your MAC address?

    Go to Settings > Network > Advanced Settings > Alternate MAC Address

    Select Clear, restart your console and give it a new try

    If yes tell me:

    Are you using an insider build / beta OS in your console?

    Did you tried using a completely different Wi-Fi network?

    For this purpose you can share mobile data via Wi-Fi hotspot temporarily

    Or besides restarting and using a custom DNS address what else did you tried?

    I won't be getting the next Xbox if it is a download only system - like rumours suggest!

    [/quote]

    I won't buy anything that's download only.

    Removing Bing?

    it only searches xbox live content, it does not access the main internet. and no it won't download anything.

    Hello Ralf,

    I can't say why or what that means specifically - I can't comment or give advice based on 3rd party software because it is not something I am knowledgeable in or can attest to as a solution. If Netlimiter has some directions on how to change the factor from false to true, that is all I can recommend. I would have to ask if Netlimiter Identifies a process of verification of something considered trusted by the communication between your PC and the server or if you try to run MSFS launcher that it reads it as a 3rd party program (it is not in the "Windows Apps like it would be if from the Microsoft Store) and if it is just a manner of running MSFS as an administrator to circumvent these permission errors. Truthfully- this is an answer that feels too simple if you haven't tried but I guess worth putting out there.

    The only difference I can see here that can be a variable worth considering is that you are downloading Forza form the Microsoft Store and your are Downloading the Launcher form Steam. That as well may have issues when it comes to "permissions" or what is trusted or not trusted. I could also recommend instead of turning off or on the firewall just adding it to trusted file in your windows device.

    Can try that to see if it yields any different results. Your reply was Friday so I am wondering if they got back to you on Twitter or if your Zendesk ticket for MSFS was reactivated or you have seen assistance. I look forward to your reply.

    Best Regards,
