The Xbox One, like the Xbox 360, can receive firmware updates both online via the Xbox Live, but also offline, via a USB drive, in which case players must follow the special Emergency Offline Update procedure.Īccording to the complicated 23-step process, players must first figure out the version of the console's operating system, download the appropriate files, save them onto a USB drive with at least 2GB of free space, and undertake a special procedure that forces the Xbox One to scan for a firmware file.Ĭheck out the full list of steps below, via Microsoft's official page.
Update: Microsoft has taken the EOU page and the system software download links down as apparently it doesn't want Xbox One owners to brick their consoles by mistake. Those are basically the only two ways to update an Xbox that is not connected to the Internet! If you have any problems, post a comment here and I will try to help.Microsoft has officially detailed the Emergency Offline Update procedure for the Xbox One next-gen console, teaching owners of the new device just how they can force the device to update its system software offline via a USB drive. You can then burn a disc and give it to a friend or burn a disc at the office and apply the update at home, etc. This method is useful if you have no access to the Internet. Then just pop the disc into your Xbox console and the update will start automatically. The second way is to simply download the update from the link above and then burn the update onto a disc. When you see the Xbox Dashboard, that means the update has been completed! Pretty easy eh! Method 2 – Copy Update to Disc It will automatically start the update program. Now all you have to do is take the USB stick over to your Xbox console, plug it in and then turn on the console. Once downloaded, go ahead and extract out the zip archive to the root of your USB flash drive. Make sure to not change the name of the downloaded ZIP file. Just scroll down to the Copy to a USB flash drive section and click on the Download the Update file link. Next download the latest update for the Xbox from here. Also, make sure it’s formatted as FAT32 and not NTFS. Method 1 – Download Update to Flash Driveįirst, connect up a USB flash drive to your computer and make sure it has enough free space on it. There are two ways to do this: either copy the update to a USB flash drive or download the update to your computer and then update your Xbox 360 console.
