I've never done a factory reset before, but now I need to in order to solve a startup error caused by a power outage while it was most likely installing a system update.....>___>


Apparently you can choose to keep your installed games and apps. I use an external 1TB HDD along with it so that should be fine, right? Or should I unplug it at some point in this process?

What about save files? I know that saves are all stored on the cloud for X1 but I've read some posts where people had syncing issues after the factory reset and they lost their mods for Skyrim SE and Fallout 4 (I don't have any mods).

You should unplug the hard drive before you reset

What about season passes and that sort of thing? Would they be deleted?

Those are saved on your online profile on the Xbox server I think

It says "Erase all accounts, saved games, settings, and home Xbox associations, but keep installed games & apps" under the "Keep games and apps" factory reset option.

It should be fine but the "accounts" and "saved games" part is worrying.
