HOW TO: Delete Xbox 360 Backwards Compatible Game Saves on Xbox One and Series X|S (Outdated)

[@coltenofarrell3312]

This has been bothering me for a while thank you so much for showing me how to do this I definitely would have not known to hit two buttons at once to get it to delete

[@ladyemster525]

Thank you so much, I was going crazy trying to delete some Dragon Age: Origins saves I didn't want but couldn't find.

[@doggone487]

Lady Emster same

[@nicholaspaynter3581]

ME TOO

[@alextheravenking]

Me too; I was like I am doing that with the little buttons but no one until this video said the game has to be running LOL

[@legionarmy1]

Same

[@lecorsaire2283]

It was a fucking PITA since it keeps syncing from the cloud. I was about to sign out and try that way. Jesus Christ! MS should at least put that somewhere on their website!!!

[@AlaskanGamerz]

Four years later you’re still helping people! Great video

[@XBIssues]

I try 😋

[@dat_dude_AK]

THANK YOU!!! Been looking around forever just to figure out how to delete my Forza Horizon saves

[@basildraws]

Wow. After a week of searching, a dozen emails back and forth with Microsoft support and just about giving up hope I found this. They actually told me there was NO POSSIBLE WAY to delete the cloud save and that my game was unplayable forever. START+SELECT Amazing. Instantly accessed all my cloud saves, delete the most recent one, done. Fixed. Game playable, all older saves intact. Thank you Thank you Thank youThank youThank youThank you!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@XBIssues]

Xbox Support, lol

[@basildraws]

Xbox OneGuide they have a script... they don’t actually know anything. As usual, it’s thanks to the player community, folks like you, that have the experience and know-how.

[@ZariaDarkwater]

THANK YOU! This is the easiest and best way to delete old saves I've found after looking for days. You're a blessing!

[@TheBros2theend]

Jesus loves you

[@caninelupus8369]

Thank you for adding the start and select part. I didn't understand what it meant at first. And thank you for this video, I can get rid of the old junk saves and start my games anew with this.

[@muther1997]

they should share this with their support team because the person they put me with and their "specialist" didn't know how to do this

[@alexkavinsky9702]

My plants vs zombies save is still here. I did this because I want to play a new game with my friend but I still have all the plants unlocked and on a previous level of 3.7. This didn’t work for me. HELP!

[@duocore3523]

I'm not a bot or anything and this legit worked! I can now play Plants vs. Zombies in peace...

[@Jax_Destro]

That's just what a bot would say. 🕵

[@TheBros2theend]

Jesus Christ loves you

[@skinnierwand537]

Seeing that brand back nostalgia I needed this for crackdown my favorite game of all time which doesn't let you make a new game.

[@allyvick2941]

YOU LITERALLY SAVED MY GAMES TYSM THIS STILL WORKS IN DECEMBER 2021

[@XxMinetaXx]

Now i can start Fable III all over again

[@robertwilson1741]

Thank you! Wish I had have come across this video first, would have saved me a lot of time and frustration.

[@razar8290]

I have been trying to find a video like this for a month thank you so much

[@RustyFire346]

Thanks for this I was confused how to delete my fable 2 saves on the xbox one but this help me thanks

[@johnmorter9324]

Wow! Same here

[@amberchevalier4122]

Yep! Been struggling for months and x box website was no help.

[@Thesupersaiyanlord]

Same here lol I mean I know you can just keep starting characters and then replace the old ones but I rather just have 1 save 😂

[@vexnope538]

Lol same here I was getting mad as heck fable is one of my favorite games

[@Jeymez]

no wonder I couldn't figure this out, I didn't know you had to press both middle buttons at the same time. Microsoft should've made that alot easier just by putting a 360 manage option, that way you can just click on it. I wanted to start a new game, but couldn't because there was no option to delete saved games. you can only have so many saves at a times, eventually you run out. so nice to finally got an answer for this, cause if you couldn't do anything that would suck lol.

[@Alecoes1]

Thank you!!! Trying a speedun but I couldn't figure out how to reset, now I can!

[@toasty4610]

this was legit the only thing i could find online about this, thanks friend

[@XBIssues]

glad to help

[@MoreBrainz]

I can confirm it works on Series X too I just spent like an hour trying to delete my Midnight Club LA save so I could replay it for the first time since the 360 days thanks so much

[@Random_Crow3]

Thank you now I can play new Vegas more because the game has enough save space again.

[@Avidreader2007]

Seriously this was incredibly helpful

[@lecorsaire2283]

@Xbox OneGuide Bro THANK YOU! I was trying to get rid of my Alan Wake save to start on Hard since Normal was too easy. It kept syncing and everyone was telling me to use the method which only works for Xbox One and I think OG Xbox games like Ninja Gaiden. I’m OCD so I didn’t want to create new saves. I would’ve never thought of pressing both buttons at once!!! I tried pressing each by themselves of course. Shit if I could buy you a beer I would man. Subscribed.

[@SabreSDPN]

Thank you so much!!!!!! Fable 2 saves were fighting me :D

[@XBIssues]

No prob, glad this video was able to help

[@ryans6969]

I'm trying to delete all my halo 3 odst campaign progress but for whatever reason even after I delete the save file, all my progress is still here. I'm at a complete loss, I have no clue what to do

[@KendamaMs]

Thank You so much! I was playing saints row and accidentally when i was trying to save game i created a new game saves and i didn't want me to have 4 equal saves. And because of Red Dead Redemption.

[@MegaChorro123]

Thank you!!! I have an old GTA IV save that’s just a mission behind another save that I don’t need and I wanted to get rid of it

[@JuriHanFan7]

Thank you for this video! It definitely helped. I'm a new subscriber now.

[@pho3nixx510]

thank you so much I have been trying for months to delete a saved game so I could play a new playthrough and couldn't find an answer

[@socatoansoldier9984]

Thank you very much for this, I didn’t have a clue how to delete my old Fable 3 saves.

[@Spoonhandle]

Thank you! I’m not sure why it’s so hard for Microsoft to list this information anywhere on their support sites...

[@XBIssues]

Happy to help!

[@dragonkin5314]

Yo my friend are a legend thank you so much my dude I've been trying to delete fable save games that took me many years

[@LilRedRidingHood]

You are 💞💜🄰🅆🄴🅂🄾🄼🄴💜💞 !!! Thank you so much for your help, I've been trying for age's to delete my 360 cloud saves.

This is exactly what i was looking for. Thank you

[@discobiscuitz6383]

You're a life saver, thankyou!

[@critbot]

Amazing, helped me restart castlevania thanks

[@mystressofmischief]

thank you so much. this was extremely helpful

[@Wolftopia_]

So on my xbox one it says i have 112/781gbs available, but i know for a fact i dont have all that space used up on my xbox one, but i did play on an xbox 360 and i have digital games saved there like advanced warfare, far cry ect, how do i delete those games to free up the space on my xbox one

[@emodee-9948]

please help, the game doesn’t show up on the list of games to delete saves

[@zero7329]

i didnt understand untill she said "for the older gamers itll be the start and select button" i was oooooooh now i get it XD

[@XBIssues]

Yeah, us old dudes have a START and SELECT button on our controllers, not some newfangled what ever the hell the first one is and a "hamburger button"

[@TheOneNekoSimp]

Thaaaaanks duuude needed to delete my old save in Forza Horizon 1 for a lets play

[@ShakikhanGaming]

Thanks man, I was pulling my hair out.

[@jasonleslie203]

I was too.

[@DoomBunnyKiller00]

Thank you! I was messing around in the first Crackdown game and i wanted to restart it but the only way to completely start from scratch in that game is to delete the save (how hard is it to just include a "start new game" option?). This helps a ton! I still have my 360 but it's put away in the box now as most of the games i have are BC on the One anyways.

[@funnyguy5746]

Holy fuck exactly the same situation

[@lecorsaire2283]

James Warden It’s fucking crazy that MS doesn’t have this on their website. I would’ve never thought of pressing both buttons. I pressed each one separately. I bet you 90% of people have no idea how to do it and probably end up signing out or making a new profile.

[@funnyguy5746]

@@lecorsaire2283 I knew how to open the guide I just didn't realise that you had delete the save from the 360's OS

[@Jax_Destro]

It annoys me that they changed the menu so drastically. On the 360 the storage option is in the last panel. It also annoys me that I didn't see the big ol manage storage at the bottom of the list.

[@LoneWolf23NJJB]

Thanks bro it was annoying me I couldn’t delete forza horizon

[@larrystanley-w5i]

Thank you I was ripping my hair out trying to figure it out 😊

[@XBIssues]

Glad I could help!

[@XzedlinXzed]

Brooooo thank you!! Also what’s that song in the intro?

[@XBIssues]

No problem, the song is Killumination it's by a buddy of mine, P-Zoe. Check out his SoundCloud. soundcloud.com/p-zoe/killumination

[@jpgrennan]

THANK GOD THIS VIDEO EXISTS I WAS GOING INSANE

[@patrikkatowicz2406]

That deserves a like

[@XDMisterlow]

For some reason it won’t work on plants vs zombies

[@adrianrossellruiz8904]

I did this but it doesn’t work, did I need a Xbox 360?

[@der0754]

Not working for me? I was attempting to delete my portal 2's co op mode save data, so I cleared everything, logged in, and the save was still there.

[@XBIssues]

Load a different 360 game and delete the portal 2 save then reload portal

[@abigml]

when i go to manage storage, black ops 2 doesn’t appear there. anyone know what to do?

[@Wiirobo]

Thx sooooo much this really helped

[@kaijutamerpat]

Huge help. Thanks bro.

[@XBIssues]

No problem

[@adrianrossellruiz8904]

I tried this but it doesn’t work, please help me

[@adrianrossellruiz8904]

I play gears 2 in Xbox One and this doesn’t delete the data anyone could help me?

[@LiteralColbyExxxtras]

If I have dlc to a game and i delete the game, will it delete my DLC?

[@XBIssues]

Yes, but if you reinstall the game you can reinstall the DLC

[@Xxdayday99]

great video!!!!! helped me with my dark souls file

[@51rius]

This didn’t work for battleblock theater

[@joshuadugan1931]

IT STILL WORKS!!! 2021! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! 😂😎👊

[@XBIssues]

Yep, that's why I haven't needed to update a lot of these vids. Enjoy

[@LiteralColbyExxxtras]

I just want to make sure again that if I do this it wont delete my achievements

[@XBIssues]

Yep, achievements can not be deleted or removed

[@lecorsaire2283]

Xbox OneGuide You can’t delete achievements although MS added an option to delete games with 0 points just to keep it clean. Another annoyance is the fact that you can’t delete demos from your PS4 library since that’s how they do purchase history and if they allowed you to delete betas and demos they would have nonstop complaints from people who deleted the shit they bought! When I learned that I never downloaded a demo or beta again. I’m OCD and always like to keep every machine clean. Same with my MBP and PCs. Never garbage on the desktop. Everything is properly always organized in folders. I envy people who don’t give a shit and are messy in general.

[@Cool-gq2om]

Thank you so much gta 4 made me restart my game whenever I loaded it so I need to make a gave save and load it everytime I wanna play gta. Thanks so much

[@M0DFATH3R]

oh wow thanks!!!!! I was racking my brain trying to figure this out

[@gbcycle6026]

Any word on if this works for the gears 2 crashing issue?

[@XBIssues]

+Damon Bradley Haven't heard anything, sorry.

[@atomic626.]

Xbox OneGuide thank you so much my game was glitched but couldnt delete it completely

[@ΣκαρπέταςΠαναγιώτης]

Damon Bradley I have the same problem too.

[@ΣκαρπέταςΠαναγιώτης]

Damon Bradley I just deleted gears of war 2 saves from another backwards compatible game that I have installed and now I think it's ok. When I try the game I will post again

[@ΣκαρπέταςΠαναγιώτης]

Damon Bradley it doesn't fix the issue gears of war 2 still crashes

[@FallsNight]

Thanks so very much. Dragon age origins was being a pain.

[@KombatFreak]

So if I do this for Halo Reach it will only delete my campaign?

[@XBIssues]

Correct

[@KombatFreak]

Thank God it didn't work 😂😂😂

[@XBIssues]

Lol

[@GandalfTheGay98]

What if you delete it via xbox one? Will it resync the data like it does with xbox one games?

[@XBIssues]

I don't think it does, once it's deleted it's gone

[@shwabbob8576]

I deleted it but still had all my saves on it, what do I do. I’m trying to restart in PVZ the original

[@XBIssues]

isn't pvz a multiplayer game? You cannot delete multiplayer progress. If it has a single player mode it will delete that.

[@shwabbob8576]

Xbox OneGuide it has coop not online from what I’ve seen, I deleted it but I still have my save. Should I re-instal it?

[@shwabbob8576]

Xbox OneGuide and it says it’s saved on the cloud. How do I delete it on the cloud

[@souhhvy]

I can't delete my game files for Black Ops 2. Is it possible? Anyone else having the same problem your Gamertag in the saved data section of Manage Game?

[@Noor_Sultan137]

Do you get a message once you open Black Ops 2 saying your cloud saves can't sync?

[@DJ-Armani]

Black ops 2 isn’t showing up 4 me

[@evildee001]

My accont got hacked for mw2 now it wont let me delete the saved fill . Help anyone

You can't delete multiplayer data, if your account was hacked you need to contact Activision Support: support.activision.com/

Your Xbox 360 profile is the same as your Xbox One profile, or am I not understanding your question?

How do you transfer old Xbox save data to usb ?

you cant on Xbox One

That's doesn't work with cod World at war. I keep deleting the save but somehow the game keep my progress... And that's piss me off because I finished the two times in veteran but the last success won't unlock... I'm going bald.

You can't. Once you delete a game save you have to start the game over from the beginning.

[@lparker1287]

Does this work with call of duty online data?

[@XBIssues]

+LBrookzy no, stats, unlocked stuff, and multiplayer data is stored on the COD servers. At most this would delete your single player game progress.

[@marcopusheen5523]

Thanks a lot! Wow

Does it delete the game, or just the saves?

Just the saves

Unfortunately did not work for me. Game doesn’t even show up in saved games. So super frustrated and would like to meet the idiot who made it so difficult to simply play a game you once loved over again fresh.
