    Bend a large paper clip into a straight line. You'll need the straight end to be about 2-3 inches long.
    • You will need a large size paper clip for this method because it will need to go in about 1 and a half inches to push the disc out.[1]

    Locate the orange/yellow circle. It's located on the left side of the console, right behind the vents.
    • The eject hole on an Xbox One S is located at the second hole on the left from the right corner and the third hole up from the bottom. It can be more difficult to spot, so it's best to have a good amount of light available.

    It should be next to the disc slot. You can also try to eject it via the home menu and not the console itself.

    It has a "Y" printed onto it and should be yellow in color, if you cannot see the color, or letter "Y". Then it can also be found, as it is the top button out of the four.
