Clear System Cache on Xbox 360

I see this posted a lot and I've used it on my brother's Xbox 360 system. Often you will hear about clearing the cache. Often, it will need cleared if an update doesn't install properly or if you cannot install an update to play a game. The cache includes: game updates, system updates, and gamer pictures.

Ready to clear the cache?  Let's teach you how to do that right now:


Press the Guide button on the Xbox 360 controller.

Go to Settings > System Settings > Storage

Highlight the storage you would like to clear the cache on and press the Y button. Device Options will pop up. Chose > Clear System Cache. Confirm your choice by selecting Yes.


That's it! You have cleared the cache and will probably be able to update your system./game now.
