I check my internal storage and it says i have 114gb available out of 364gb, but then I add up how much storage my games are taking up and it only takes up 213gb? 364gb-213gb=151gb free and so i have no idea why i dont have that extra bit available to download games

#

i literally only need 17gb extra to get forza

surreal oyster
#

do u have any left over dlcs for games that u uninstalled, clips, videos, apps, screenshots etc. multiple external drives?

lavish cobalt
#

i have an external drive which i moved forza and other games to to make room on my internal drive

surreal oyster
#

lavish cobalt
#

#

#

or just leave it

surreal oyster
#

lavish cobalt
#

#

yeah nah still saying 113.9gb free

#

should be around the 130 mark which is almost exactly what i need for forza

surreal oyster
#

did u filter it for internal?

lavish cobalt
#

yes just internal

surreal oyster
#

gve me5 min let me chek my series x

lavish cobalt
#

sure thanks so much

surreal oyster
#

ok only other option is system updates. Last option is to try unplugging external drive then factory reset and keep games and apps and see if that helps

lavish cobalt
#

what does factory resetting do

#

it'll delete all my settings etc right?

surreal oyster
#

ok lets try a hard reset

#

first

#

press and hold power button on ur series s

#

util console powers down

#

unplug all cables

#

wait 2 min then replug all cables and turn on xbox with power button on console

lavish cobalt

lavish cobalt
#

my xbox is a series s so no disk slot

#

surreal oyster
#
