    Hey Xbox Insiders! We have a new Xbox Update Preview coming to the Alpha Skip-Ahead ring. It’s important we note that some updates made in these preview OS builds include background improvements that ensure a quality and stable build for Xbox consoles.

    We continue to post these release notes, even when the noticeable changes to the UI are minimal, so you’re aware when updates are coming to your device. Details can be found below!

    Xbox Insider Release Notes

    System Update Details:

    • OS version released: RS_XBOX_DEV_FLIGHT\25969.1001.231005-2000
    • Available: 2 p.m. PT – October 9, 2023
    • Mandatory: 3 a.m. PT – October 10, 2023

    Fixes Implemented

    Thanks to the hard work of Xbox engineers, we are happy to announce the following fixes have been implemented for this build:

    System

    • Various updates to properly reflect local languages across the console.
      • Note: Users participating in Preview may see “odd” text across the console, for more information go here.

    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.

    Audio

    • We have received reports of users experiencing intermittent issues with audio across the dashboard, games, and apps. If you have experienced issues, be sure you have the latest firmware updates for your TV and other equipment. If you’re unsure, you may need to contact the manufacturer for assistance.
      • Note: If you continue to experience issues after applying the latest firmware updates, please submit feedback via Report a Problem immediately with the “Reproduce with advanced diagnostics” option, then select the category “Console experiences” and “Console Audio Output Issues”. Be sure to include as much information as possible:
        • When did the issue start?
        • Did you lose audio just in the game/app or system audio as well?
        • Does changing the audio format resolve the issue? If yes, what was the format before and after?
        • Does rebooting resolve the issue?
        • What does your setup include? Equipment, layout, etc.
        • And any additional information you can provide to reproduce the problem.

    Games

    • We have received reports of issues with in-game party management in some titles, and we are investigating.
    • We are investigating reports of an unexpected cursor remaining visible during gameplay in some titles.
      • Workaround: If you have a physical mouse connected your console, you can move the cursor out of the way, or disconnecting it should remove the cursor.

    Installation

    • We are investigating reports of the Microsoft Store getting stuck at 100% when updating/installing. If you experience this, please be sure to file feedback via Report a Problem.
      • Workaround: First, if the Microsoft Store has recently been opened, be sure to close it from the guide or Home by pressing the Menu button and choosing Quit. Next, pause and resume the update. If the behavior persists, restart your console from the Power Center or the guide. Learn more here: How to restart or power cycle your Xbox console.

    Keyboard Button Mapping for Xbox Controllers

    • If you change your keyboard language settings while the Xbox Accessories app is open, the change will be reflected after quitting the app or rebooting your console.

    Manage Queue

    • When the queue is empty, the border around “When games and apps are installing, you’ll see them here” may appear to extend off-screen. We are working on a fix.

    Networking

    • We are investigating reports of an issue where the console may not connect to their network as expected on boot. If you experience this, be sure to report the issue via Report a Problem as soon as you’re able.

    Make sure to use Report a problem to keep us informed of your issue. We may not be able to respond to everyone, but the data we’ll gather is crucial to finding a resolution.

    • Available: 3 p.m. PT – September 19, 2023
    • Mandatory: 3 a.m. PT – September 20, 2023

    Fixes Implemented

    Thanks to the hard work of Xbox engineers, we are happy to announce the following fixes have been implemented for this build:

    My Games & Apps

    • Fixed an issue where some installed titles could display as not installed when viewing the Manage page.

    System

    • Various stability and performance fixes.

    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.

    Audio

    • We have received reports of users experiencing intermittent issues with audio across the dashboard, games, and apps.
      • Note: If you experience issues with audio, please submit feedback via Report a Problem immediately with the “Reproduce with advanced diagnostics” option, then select the category “Console experiences” and “Console Audio Output Issues”.
      • Be sure to include as much information as possible:
        • When did the issue start?
        • Did you lose audio just in the game/app or system audio as well?
        • Does changing the audio format resolve the issue? If yes, what was the format before and after?
        • Does rebooting resolve the issue?
        • What does your setup include? Equipment, layout, etc.
        • And any additional information you can provide to reproduce the problem.

    Keyboard Button Mapping for Xbox Controllers

    • In the Xbox Accessories app, the “Learn More” button is currently not functional.
    • If you change your keyboard language settings while the Xbox Accessories app is open, the change will be reflected after quitting the app or rebooting your console.

    Networking

    • We are investigating reports of an issue where the console may not connect to their network as expected on boot. If you experience this, be sure to report the issue via Report a Problem as soon as you’re able.
      • Workaround: Wait a minute for the connection to establish. If your console still hasn’t connected, restart your Xbox from the Power Center by holding the Xbox button > Restart console > Restart.

    Upload your Captures to OneDrive

    • If you are backing up a very large collection of captures (1000+) to OneDrive, it may take a while. Please allow for a few days for everything to appear.

    Make sure to use Report a problem to keep us informed of your issue. We may not be able to respond to everyone, but the data we’ll gather is crucial to finding a resolution.
