Why can't I start the game after it's downloaded?
I've just finished downloading Skyrim SE for my Xbox One, but I'm not able to start the game. Every time I want to open the game, it wants to update the game. Unfortunately, the update never starts. Instead I get the message that there was a problem.
My internet works, so I don't think that's the problem.
Can anyone help me?
Best Answer
You probably just need to perform a system update for the Xbox.
Go to System ? Settings ? Updates & Downloads, and select 'Console update available'.
After that process has finished, try updating Skyrim again.Alternatively, you can give reinstalling the game a try.

If a game won't launch, this is often caused by corruption in your extracted game files. Please see our Verify Integrity of Game Files article for instructions on verifying the integrity of your game files.

Hmm, this could possibly be a DLC that needs to be downloaded, I have had this problem with my PS4 with multiple games, I try and run it, it says "Cannot download update file." It could be you don't have enough storage, just a glitch with Skyrim, having to download it again, numerous problems, try removing some things from storage and running it again, try reinstalling Skyrim, if these don't work, tell me.
