Upcoming Xbox One update will fix random crashes

The latest Preview Alpha update reaches the Xbox Insiders, and it brings a lot of goodies and some known issues as well — because what’s an update without a few problems of its own? The update is not that significant regarding its size, but it manages to fix an essential issue for potentially affected users.

We’re referring to a hotfix that patches stability issues. The update will prevent consoles from crashing when players have them in Instant On mode. The fixes target Game Hubs, Mixer, Settings, Spotify, Twitch and system reliability.
