Xbox One slower load time after the nov 2015 update


Recommended Posts

was wondering if anyone's xb1 has a slower load time, coming out of sleep, after the nov 2015 update?  mine sits at the signing in screen for about a min or two before the dash board is displayed.  kind of pissing me off since it is coming out of sleep and not a cold start.

Yea, mine is the same.  Takes 3s as long to load the dashboard.  Also, the latest Netflix update was crap as well.  Pause a show, the onscreen controls stay up.  Fast forward/rewind is fast/quick.  Press once and go to the beginning or end of the show.  Have to exit the app and reload.

how do you hard reset the console and do you lose any data?

I believe you just shut it down and unplug it. Plug it back in and start it again. You do not lose any data doing that.

Hold the power button for 10 seconds until the XBOX turns off.  Unplugging the power until the power brick light turns off is another way.

I tend to do both, just to be doubly sure!

You should be careful before overusing the hard reset option. The hard drive does not get safely parked, and instead does an emergency shutdown, you'll hear the arms get forcefully placed in the parking zone.

 

This can damage the arms and heads prematurely if done too many times, and it isn't easily or cheaply put right. Take it from a data recovery guy, even with cloud saves you can't be too dismissive as you'll need to install tens of GB's of games with new HDD :)

I've needed to restart my Xbox One each time I want to open Skype, because it won't begin to sign me in until I do. When I do restart it, I do notice the loading of the system is considerably slower than previously. It is quite annoying.

Update:

 

i was looking around the xbox one setting last night and found that the xbox one was turning off the hard drive everytime I shut it down.  Meaning it has to spin the drive backup when I turned it on.  After unchecking this box, the xbox one boot up faster.

 

hope this help others.

    • Nah. They'll milk the current generation in terms of design - controllers, consoles, but no meaningful hardware improvements. This is one reason why people aren't buying Xbox hardware - it's stagnant.
    • Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.
    • YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    • Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS
