Last Updated: March 9, 2022

The Xbox Live service for Xbox One automatically backs up your save game data in the cloud as long as your console is connected to the internet, allowing you to access your data even if you replace your console or play on a secondary console. However, it's possible to run out of cloud storage space, in which case you might want to delete some of your existing save game data. This wikiHow shows you how to access the data that the Xbox One saves in the cloud.

Steps

1
Press the Xbox button. This brings up the Xbox One Guide.
- If you're not playing on your own console, you can still sign in to your own profile to be able to access your cloud-saved data. Select Add & manage and then Add new, then enter your login information. Once your profile is added, you can select it from the Home screen.
2
Select the My games & apps tile and press A. This opens your game library.
