Hi I was playing a game on Xbox and it froze

I turned the Xbox off and when I turned it back on the screen was still there and I can hear the rest in the background

Nice to meet you, *****!
Can you try to turn it off, unplug it, wait for like 30 seconds and turn it on again?

Customer Replay

Yeah I’ve done that and it’s the same still

Can you do anything with the screen? Like open the settings or leave the game?

Noted, thank you!
Press and hold the power button on the console for at least 10 seconds. Your console will reboot.

While the console is on or off?

While it`s on. Press and hold the power button.

It’s worked thank you so much

Is there anything else I can do for you today?
