Known Issues

We understand some issues have been listed in previous Xbox Insider Release Notes. These items aren’t being ignored, but it will take Xbox engineers more time to find a solution.

We’re still tracking these known issues:

Controllers

  • We’ve received some reports that users’ controllers are randomly losing sync or disconnecting from the console. If you encounter this behavior please make sure and report this issue after reconnecting.

Dashboard

  • We’ve received some reports that the dashboard is not responding as quickly as expected.  We are aware and investigating.

Dolby Vision for Gaming

  • With Dolby Vision enabled, some TVs may introduce input latency when playing games.
  • When 120Hz, ALLM, or VRR is enabled, some TVs are unable to enter Dolby Vision mode.
  • On some TVs, a brief green screen may be shown when entering/exiting a title with Dolby Vision enabled.
  • When playing a title with Dolby Vision and ALLM enabled some TVs may exhibit washed out colors.

Edge

  • Pins related to the new Edge browser will not work if you decide to remove your console from the Xbox Update Preview.
    • Workaround: Pins should be deleted and re-added.

Games

  • We’ve received reports that controller input is not working when a game is launched.

Installation

  • Some users have reported apps and games cannot be re-installed after failing to launch repeatedly.
    • Workaround: A factory reset will need to be performed. Instructions can be found here under “Reset using your console” and selecting the “Reset and keep my games & apps” option.

My Games & Apps

  • Titles in collection may incorrectly appear with a “trial” tag.

Narrator

  • There are several sections of the dashboard that the Narrator does not currently read. We are aware of the issue and investigating.
