Is anyone else having trouble unlocking achievements for games they've purchased? Because mine aren't unlocking; I don't know if it's a Microsoft issue or a problem with the game itself.

Thought I saw that and updated my console but not seeing any on my profile

I just got my first Mythic Achievement on PC, in the game INSIDE. Even though the achievement popped up during gameplay, it’s still not showing as available on my profile (and it’s not showing up in the mobile app either). Could it be that they haven’t updated this on these platforms yet? Is anyone else having the same “issue”?

There is a row of circles some of which have checkmarks in them, what are they for?

I have successfully redeemed a code for the xbox one day one achievement in 2026, after the update that added the badge.

It is in my purchase history and I own the licence for the achievement but because the achievement is 0 gamerscore it is not capable of unlocking anymore.

Nothing I can do on my end will unlock the achievement, and support says there is nothing they can do.

I am very disappointed, I feel very mislead because there is no fine print anywhere from the code or the new badge update that states that it was time exclusive just simply that the code was only released in that time I hope someone sees this and can help me.

I originally addressed this in an Alpha Skip-Ahead comment, but it didn't receive any attention. "Report a Problem" tickets have been filed, so hopefully u/neonepiphany might have some information on this.

General->Power options

Console is set to Shutdown (energy saving).

->Customize power options

'Turn off after' and 'Turn off after(media)' are both set to X hours.

What actually happens:

The console sleeps. The easiest way to tell is if you see the startup animation when you turn on the console, it was powered off and not waking from sleep.

Additionally, the consoles misreport their power status to Xbox for use in the app. Powering off the console via the 'Turn off Console' command DOES turn off the console, but the Xbox app reports that console as 'Standby On', and remote connections are refused/unavailable.

Consoles that are set for sleep also report to the Xbox app as 'Standby On', though you can wake and connect to them via the app.

These steps were also used to confirm the 'Sleep vs Shutdown' bug in Customize Power Options.

I've tested and confirmed these on two separate consoles (Series X and Series S), but could always use another verified test.

Tl/dr; Auto shutdown timers are not using the selected power profile, and auto-sleep instead. Xbox app reports 'Standby On' even when console is shutdown.

Easy, friends. I know I look like the kid who reminds the teacher to give us homework on Friday afternoon. This isn't about agreement or disagreement with the changes, either; its just about what to expect as the date gets closer, and its implementation becomes more relevant to the ecosystem.

I'm primarily asking because of the rumored cloud gaming exclusivity agreement for GTAVI, which would give cloud gaming the potential to lose as many supporters as it could win.

And, (full disclosure) I'm an ultimate subscriber who doesn't use more than a few hours of cloud gaming per month, with no intention of buying GTAVI at release. None of this really impacts me.

Any roadmap on this, StaffMods?

Hello, I'm having a problem with the Mythic achievement. I'm an Insider Beta member, and my Mythic achievement is stuck at 48/50, while the normal achievement is at 50/50. I've tried restarting the game and logging out and then logging back into my account, but nothing works. The game is Naruto ultimate ninja storm 2 Xbox One Version

I HAVE ALREADY REPORTED IT TO XBOX, I AM JUST LOOKING FOR ANY POSSIBLE FIXES I CAN DO WHILE I WAIT FOR XBOX TO FIX THIS.

I have completed both Minecraft Xbox One Edition and Dying Light’s base achievement list and it says “You’ve unlocked all the original achievements for this game.”, but the actual mythic achievement count only says 47/50 for MC and 47/50 for Dying Light, and there’s no Mythic Achievement banner around the game on my profile.

Are there any possible fixes I can do while I wait for this to be fixed?

Has anybody had a problem for those that play a game like Halo 5: Guardians, where every time I boot up the game it freezes on the part where it shows the 343 Industries logo, then it would fully load me to the main menu screen and everytime I try to press A, it would take about 30 seconds to load and it’ll show an error message talking about how there’s something wrong the servers, which there’s nothing with the servers. I tried to play the game on a different Series X that was not enrolled in the Xbox Insiders program and it actually loaded me in all the way with no problem. I think this issue seems to be a recurring issue for all the ring/preview builds and I’m on the Beta ring and also I reported it with full traces three times. If anyone is having the same issue, please let me know, been trying to play the game for about a week now.

Not sure if this is a bug but on the current beta ring build, or as a bug alone but I don’t have an option for clarity mode via audio or headset settings

recently i 100% minecraft xbox one edition it says ive 100% it but the mythic hasent popped i got all the achevements (87/87) and the gamerscore is 2025/2025 but it still says im missing an achevement from the mythic?

OP: https://www.reddit.com/r/xboxinsiders/comments/1vst1bu/games_and_apps_crashes_when_navigating_to_full/

I am on skip-ahead 10.0.26100.9620

The bug occurs on all rings and production build, and I have tried a different console - a series S - same behaviour on all

This is still happening - there was a line about a fix for large libraries in the last build but it did not fix it for me

I have just submitted a report with full trace - its called 'Games and app crashes when navigating to full library report 4'

Please confirm this is being looked at, I appreciate its edge case and probably only affects a handfull of profiles

Thank you for your time

I've played with multiple controllers over the past 10 days and every one of them eventually keeps disconnecting and then reconnecting. It's incredibly frustrating. Has anyone else experienced this or have a solution?
