Xbox One: Fast boot - all info about the mode

Even at system startup, the Xbox One gives you several setting options. Particularly popular is the "Fast boot" function, which allows you to significantly reduce the waiting time. To enable this, it is necessary to activate the Instant-On mode in the power options instead of the energy-saving mode.

In the settings, you can specify whether the Xbox One should boot up particularly quickly.

Xbox One: Enable Fast Bootup

Already without "Fast Bootup", the Xbox One and its successor versions are not exactly slow, but with the function enabled, it goes even faster. There are various settings to choose from in the console's power options. Besides the energy-saving mode, this is also the Instant-On mode. You have to activate the latter so that your console starts faster the next time.

1. Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the Guide menu.
2. Select the "Profile and System" option here.
3. Next, open the "Settings" entry.
4. Open the "General" section.
5. Select "Power Mode & Startup".
6. Now you can see all the startup and power saving options of the Xbox One. Go to "Power Mode" and press "A".
7. You will see two options: "Save Power" and "Fast Boot Up". Highlight "Fast boot up" and "Instant-On mode" respectively and press "A".

Fast boot up is now enabled. In addition to a faster system startup, the mode offers you several other advantages: you can activate the Xbox One by voice or turn on your TV and satellite receiver via the Xbox.
