Before you begin - Export/Restore Xbox One Data
Before delving into the reasons and solutions, it's advisable to export and restore your Xbox data to prevent further loss. While this can be a complex task, tools like the Data Recovery Wizard make it possible. This utility scans your Xbox hard drive and allows you to recover/export Xbox files to another drive with just a few clicks. Additionally, this data recovery software can also help you retrieve photos, videos, Word/Excel/PPT/PDF files from SD cards, SSDs, USB drives, and hard disks.
Before performing Xbox data recovery, you need to:
- Stop using the Xbox One hard drive.
- You'll need to open up your Xbox and remove the hard drive so that you can connect it to your computer. Microsoft uses a proprietary connector to attach the hard drive to the Xbox 360, so you won't be able to plug it directly into your PC.
- Sometimes, the drive might not show up in the list of drives. If this is the case, you should first troubleshoot the "external hard drive not showing up" issue.
And then you could do the following.
Step 1: Choose and scan the external hard drive
- 1. Download and install the Data Recovery tool on your computer or laptop.
2. Connect the external hard drive to your computer.
3. Run the Data Recovery wizard and select the external hard drive from the list of external drives. Then, click on Scan for lost data.
Step 2: Review the scan results
- Data recovery software immediately scans all data in the selected drive, including deleted, corrupted, and existing data.
- You can quickly locate a specific file type, such as images, Word, Excel, PDF, videos, emails, and more, using the filter feature.
Step 3: Preview and recover the data
- • Double-click a file from the scan results to preview it.
• Select the files you need and click “Recover”.
• Choose another disk (different from the original location) to save the recovered files.

Why won't my Xbox One turn on? (6 reasons)
If your Xbox One isn't showing any signs of power, you can troubleshoot the issue to figure out why it won't turn on. There are several reasons why your Xbox might not be booting up. The power supply could be faulty or unplugged. The console itself could be damaged or overheated. Read on for the causes and details.
| Reasons Why Your Xbox Won't Turn On | Details |
|---|---|
| Unplugged Device | The Xbox won't power on if the power cord isn't connected to a power outlet. |
| HDMI Connection Issues | The Xbox One won't turn on if it can't detect a functioning display through an HDMI connection. |
| Faulty Power Outlet | A faulty power outlet is another reason your Xbox might be malfunctioning. |
| Power Protector Tripped | If your console is plugged into a power protector, it may not be receiving enough power to function optimally. |
| Power Supply Failure | If the power outlet is working but your console remains off, the power supply could be the issue. |
| Xbox One Overheating | If airflow is obstructed over the Xbox's vents, overheating can occur and prevent it from turning on. |
| Console Settings Issue | If your console is off and there are no ventilation issues, console settings might be the culprit. |
6 Ways to Fix an Xbox That Won't Turn On
Whether you're dealing with an Xbox One that won't turn on, an Xbox One that turns off by itself, or an Xbox One that suddenly shuts down, you can try these solutions to get your console up and running smoothly again.
Solution 1: Make sure the device is inserted correctly
First, check the power cord. Make sure that one end is plugged into a working electrical outlet, and that the other end is plugged into the back of your Xbox One.

Solution 2: Check the HDMI connection to your display
As mentioned above, if your HDMI cable isn't connected properly, your Xbox One might be on but won't appear on your TV monitor. Thus, you'll need to make sure that your HDMI cable is connected correctly.

Solution 3: Try a different power outlet to fix issues with your Xbox not working properly
Plug your Xbox and power adapter into a different outlet, and see if it turns on. If it does, congratulations; you've found the problem. It was a power issue.
Try using a different power outlet.
If this doesn't work, check to see if other things in your room and the rest of the house aren't working either. Turn off all the devices on that circuit, then check the fuse box or circuit breaker. If everything else seems to be working fine, call in a licensed electrician.
Solution 4: Check the power coil
If you are using a power strip or surge protector, make sure that it is turned on and functioning properly. Some of these devices will blow a fuse in the event of a power surge to protect your electronics. Check other items plugged into the power strip, and try plugging your device into a different outlet on the strip. If the outlets on the power strip are not working, you will need to replace it immediately.
Solution 5: Recover/Reset Internal Power
If your Xbox One is plugged in, the outlet works, but you don't see a green light on the power brick, you might need to reset the power.
Step 1: Unplug all cables from the console, including the power cord and AC adapter, and wait 10 seconds.
Step 2: Plug them back in, and press the Xbox button on the front of the console.
Solution 6: Make sure your Xbox One has proper ventilation
If your Xbox gets too hot during gameplay, it might shut down abruptly. Clear anything out of the way around your console, and make sure that vents can easily take in air.
Solution 7: Check console settings
Follow these steps to check and change your Xbox One console settings.
- 1. Open the Settings menu, and select "Power & Startup."
2. The Instant On setting will switch your console to sleep mode when you turn it off.
3. Set this to "Energy Saving."
4. Check the "Automatic Shutdown" settings in the same menu.
