How to fix Xbox on PC slow download speed

Downloading Xbox games on PC should be easy and a lot of the time it is, but sometimes download speeds can be incredibly slow, dropping down into the Kb/s. Whether it’s the Xbox PC app or the Microsoft Store app, installing games can be made very difficult by really low download speeds. When installing something big like Forza Horizon 5 at over 100 GB in size, this can be a serious problem. Here’s how to fix Xbox on PC slow download speeds.

  3. Reinstall the Xbox App/Microsoft Store App.
  4. Connect to a wired connection instead of wireless.
  5. Try to download the software to a different available location.
  6. Make sure other downloads are paused or stopped.
  7. Any other downloads using your network can severely slow down downloads on your PC.
  8. The above fixes should hopefully get games on both the Xbox app and Microsoft Store downloading without issue and at the full expected speed.
