Red Dead Redemption 2 | Installation Stopped: The Final Fix? (XBOX ONLY)

My game uninstalled itself a few days ago and when I tried to reinstall the disc it stopped midway. I googled everything to try and fix it (hard reset, clear local saves, offline, everything) but then I decided to try this and it worked! Hope this helps anyone with this problem!

Edit: This fix is for Xbox One, as far as I know people who have tried this on PlayStation did not work!

Your the man really. A year later and still no fix from rockstar or Xbox. Thank you sir 🙏👏

I have the digital version but this video came up on my recommendations and I just wanted to say I hope everyone's game gets fixed I completely understand the pain and annoyance lol take care y'all

[Merrgear]

I fucking love you man. I was tempted to cough up another 60 bucks for the digital version but you came in clutch. You deserve good things in life

[zacharyboshow]

I can’t even tell you how much I love you. I have been trying to install this for months

Disc 1 got to about 18 GB then it said insert disc 2. Disc 2 got me to 56.93 GB. When I put disc 1 in for the second time to finish the install, it says “your disc may be dirty or damaged” which is not true at all, both of my discs are pristine. I’ve been stuck on 56.93

Both of my discs are pristine. No smudges or scratches. But every time I put the play disc in to finish the download, it says 99+ hours and then the download fails

Okay ive never had problems with this game, and there not scratches on either disk, but once the instillation is almost complete and it gets to 79 GB it says instillation stopped

Duuuude thank you so much. Been stuck on 46 for hours and had a ridiculous download time of something like 6 hours now it's past 50 and says about 20 mins.

You saved me from breaking my own Xbox in half thanks bro

[zombi]

It’s 2022 and this is still a problem.. yikes.

I don’t think this method works anymore. I tried reinstalling Rdr2 on the discs. Got stuck at 49% so I tried continuing it from the store but it always says installing, even when it’s paused.

I also have a game update and I’m not sure if I’m meant to accept it when It first starts installing or wait till the games fully installed.

[samweiss]

oml tysm! i couldnt even get the game past 10% but now its running smoothly for installation i was legit bouta take a sledge hammer to it, your honestly the best youtuber by far for this kind of stuff and thank you SOOO MUCH! i wish you all the happiness in the world my guy.

[Meemercks]

Hey man i know u made this video 2 years ago so u probably wont see my comment but i just wanna say thank you so much I finally got my game to download because of you. We need more people like you that dont click bait and get straight to the point.

[kohenmoore]

How does this make any sense? I don’t have the digital version so I can’t download

[Mario-gyit]

I know I’m late but my problem is that it will say “installation stopped” constantly specifically to red dead and it always the same percentage and it starts downloading again and it stops again

[BrodyZastrow]

You’re a g for this been stuck at 22% for a literal month ran through what you said and now it’s almost done installing

[aiden]

I try and do this with disk in and my Xbox basically implies I don’t have it and just shows the price for every edition, I use to be able to bypass this by putting the disk in then pausing it and taking it out and installing it from the store but now it won’t let me, now it pretty much gets too about a 1.19GB then decides to stop until I resume it

[ryansweetser]

Thank you all the other videos hasn’t been working and this one is I really appreciate it man

[jkgoomercado]

I tried this so many times it didn’t work, apparently it was because the disc was scratched up. I know I couldn’t tell if it worked but this seems %101 this is real.

[rubenrodriguezdiaz]

For those struggling with this shit... this worked for me: I asked a friend if he could lend me both data and game disc, because he had installed the game perfectly, at once. I put the Data Disc and it got installed; I put the Game disc and it got installed as well!!!
I believe that the problem resides in the game version, specifically in the box itself; there are game boxes with 2 disc compartments (my friend's) and single boxes where both data and game discs share 1 compartment. I hope this info is useful for you guys!!

You’re an absolute legend, cheers man.
