How To Make Xbox Download While Off

Just got this beast today and sort of a noob with it.

How to make xbox download while off. Shut the console off and it will still download. Navigate to system settings general power mode startup. Can i still download games while my console is off. To close a game or app press the xbox button highlight the game or app you want in close in the left sidebar and press the menu button it s the button that looks like three horizontal lines. Have a good day.

In the settings menu find the section called power startup and select instant on power mode this will keep your xbox one on standby so it can finish any downloads while it s turned off. From the power mode dropdown select instant on. Go into setting power option and set it up as instant on with automatic downloading selected dont use energy save mode to download.

While some users are reporting that the problem is occurring on and off others say that the home updating the controller to the latest version directly from xbox one. The instant on mode essentially sends the xbox one in a rest mode where it isn t turned off but it is just in a low power state. If your console has kinect a motion sensor add on it will actually listen to your voice command and turn the system back on. If you want to download games in the background while your xbox one is off start by going to the home screen and clicking the menu button on your controller. Thanks for any help.
