Xbox Series X

OS 10.0.26100.8561 (but this has been going on for years).

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Connect the Xbox Series X to a WiFi network. Verify “Current network status” shows “All services are available” in Settings > General > Network settings.
2. Disable the WiFi signal (e.g., turn off hotspot). The console enters a “disconnected but searching” state. It will say "Can't connect to your wireless network. Try restarting your router".
3. After several hours, re-enable the WiFi signal.

Expected Behavior:
The console should automatically reconnect to the, similar to other devices.

Actual Behavior:

• The console remains in a disconnected, searching state and fails to connect to the any known network. Searching new networks never returns available networks.
• Attempting to use the “Go offline” feature results in an infinite loading spinner.
• The UI becomes unresponsive; pressing the 'X' button crashes the loading screen and forces a return to the main settings page.
• Subsequent attempts to reconnect online continue to display the disconnected state.

Workarounds:

• Perform a restart of the console (this restores connectivity automatically, to the already known hotspot without issue, works all the time).
• Occasionally, temporarily changing the default network and switching back may work. Very rarely.

Notes:

If you turn off and turn on the hotspot quickly, the console reconnects without issue. There's a point when it happens but it's not immediate. But it happens 100% of the time.

I swap games a lot and take long to return after I feel burn out. But once return is hard for me to get back to the story. Avowed has this amazing thing they you can get lore info from the dialogue which has make it easier to return, but so many RPGs i have to start again.

I'm vibe coding a web app for personal use only to take notes so I can get back to games (especially RPGs) and have an easier time lore/story wise to get back.

I have a friend that has a physical notebook and he takes notes, and they're amazing. I'm not a note taking person so that doesn't work for me. Do you take notes? What things are relevant to you? Or do you know anybody that takes notes?

I have to restart Witched 3, Cyberpunk, Expedition 33 and Outer Worlds 2 cuz simply I can't remember most things. The gameplay mechanics are way easier to get but story is not as easy

Maybe it’s always been this way, I don’t know if MS even sees this subreddit, but I gotta say it:

I’m a Windows person through and through, and I love that Copilot exists. But it blows my mind that the ChatGPT app is faster than the Copilot app. What started as a simple, fast way to pop open Copilot has turned into this slow, bloated thing.

I work in software. I use AI constantly. Speed is everything. It’s the same reason Google crushed Yahoo and Altavista back in the day, fast, clean, straight to the point. Every search engine copied that formula.

Copilot has a shortcut, sure, but on a low‑end laptop or even a decent one it takes forever to open. It feels sluggish, loads a bunch of stuff I didn’t ask for, crashes often, and behaves inconsistently. It’s honestly upsetting to see Microsoft doing this to their own product.

I own a Surface Book 2, and a Surface Laptop 4. Both decent hardware, and in both the experience is just so lame. Alt+Space brings this pop up that takes some seconds to load. The goddamn thing is already in my taskbar, and still every time I type the shortcut, I can see this slow ass interface loading like it's chocking itself by simply opening. If you open the big mode, there is so much shit, recommendations and crap, it's like opening Bing.

Please de‑clutter Copilot. Goddammit. Stop overcrowding your shit Microsoft
