If you then take that hard drive and plug it into your PC and run the Xbox One Drive Converter, you should see the drive in Xbox One format and can switch it back to PC format without reformatting - this will allow you to use

There is a tool called 'Xbox One Drive Converter' which will allow you to switch something called the 'MBR' or Master Boot Record. There IS an option out there, but I have not tried it, so I can't vouch for its worth. If reformatting is needed, a way to salvage the files before doing so and saving myself days of downloads is just as appreciated.Hi K00MM00! Scoob is 100% correct, a hard drive which has been formatted for Xbox One use is not recognizable by a PC, and vice versa, without a reformat. Looking for a way to resolve before having to reformat. TL DR- Using a perfectly fine working External HDD on a Day One Xbox One which always seems to brick after Insider Updates.

If anyone has some ideas as to how to copy files to my PC and then reformat the drive, only to reformat AGAIN for Xbox One and replace the files, that would be greatly appreciated. IвЂ™m attempting to leave the xbox unplugged for the next 24 hours in an attempt to save myself from reinstalling all my games. I donвЂ™t mind reformatting the drive again as that process is relatively quick, but having to redownload all the games and apps os time consuming and will generally render my Xbox useless for the next 3 or 4 days. Went to play the same game today and received the вЂњGame is taking too long to startвЂќ message, check My Games and Apps, saw hard drive wasnвЂ™t being detected and immediately power cycled the xbox in hopes that it just didnвЂ™t go caput again, to no avail. Last night, no more than 24 hours ago, I was playing a game which was on the external, safely closed the game and turned off the xbox. Third time, starting to get more than annoyed with having to redownload all my files after yet another reformat. Second time, same issue, didnвЂ™t even bother going to Xbox Support, reformatted and redownloaded over 700gb worth of games and apps. I replaced the drive thinking it had finally bit the dust but later realized the drive was still intact, reformatted and started using it again. First time the problem came up after the last massive update, Xbox Support recommended replacing the drive as it mightвЂ™ve died after 3 years. Using as 1TB Toshiba Canvio USB 3.0 and all that on the Day One(2013) Xbox One. As a member of the Xbox Insider Program I often get the updates before theyвЂ™re rolled out to the general public which I believe is causing these problems.
