How to Recover Deleted/Lost Xbox One Saved Game Files
Some Xbox users have experienced data loss of saved games after updating to the latest version, which is supposed to improve Windows 10 support. If you're one of them and can't recover your saved games on your own, there are ways to help you get them back.
Method 1. Recover Deleted/Lost Xbox One Game Files with Qiling Recovery Software
Data recovery from an Xbox One is a complex task, but possible with the help of capable hard drive recovery software like Deep Data Recovery. If the Xbox device is not encrypted, this tool can efficiently recover deleted or lost saved game files on the Xbox One hard drive, as long as there is no overwriting of data. It also supports recovering files from a formatted hard drive and retrieving data from a lost or RAW partition on Xbox One.
Things to do before data recovery:
- If you have lost data or game files on your Xbox One hard drive, stop using it immediately to prevent further data loss or corruption. This will help minimize the risk of losing any remaining data or files.
- To access a Xbox 360 hard drive on a PC, you'll need to physically remove it from the console, then connect it to your computer using an external enclosure or a SATA to USB converter cable. This allows you to transfer files from the Xbox hard drive to your PC.
- If an external hard drive doesn't show up in the drive selection interface, first resolve the issue of the external hard drive not showing up, and then proceed with data recovery.
After completing the steps mentioned earlier, you can recover deleted games saved on Xbox One in just three steps.
Step 1. Run Deep Data Recovery. Select file types and click "Next" to start the recovery process.
Step 2. Select the drive where you lost your data and click "Scan" to initiate the scanning process.
Step 3. When the scan is complete, you can use the "Filter" or "Search" feature to locate the lost files. This will help you narrow down the search and find the specific files you're looking for.
Step 4. Select the files you want to recover and click "Recover". Then, choose a secure location to save them.
Method 2. Re-Download Deleted Xbox One Games Munally
If you've lost game files, you can either use a third-party recovery app to restore them or download and re-install each game individually on your Xbox One, which will allow you to play them again.
1. To access your download history on Xbox, go to the Xbox App, navigate to Settings, click on Account, and select Download History.
2. Find the Games that you've downloaded > select "Download Again".
Wait patiently and let the app finish the downloading process. Once complete, all deleted or lost saved games will be available for you to play on Xbox One.
Conclusion
After recovering deleted games saved on your Xbox One, it's a good idea to create a backup copy of them. This will be helpful next time if you experience hard drive corruption, formatting, damage, or accidental deletion. You can use Qiling Data Recovery Wizard to help you recover data on Xbox One in these cases.
