[b]Fixes:[/b]

[b]Installation[/b]

  • Fixed an issue which impacted transferring content between drives.
    
    
  • Enabling the download 4K updates checkbox will now cause 4K updates to show up in the Updates tab of My games & apps.

[b]Profile Color[/b]

[b]Known Issues:[/b]

[b]Black Screen[/b]

• When resuming from connected standby (with the console in Instant-On mode), you may encounter a black screen on the TV or monitor. You can avoid this issue by powering on the console prior to powering on the TV or monitor.
  
  
• Workaround 1: If stuck in this state, unplug and reinsert the HDMI cord into the back of the console, then power the TV off/on.
  
  
• Workaround 2: Disable IR blasting in Settings to prevent this issue from reoccurring.
  

[b]System Update[/b]

• When installing a system update, you may encounter an E200 error at the last stage of the installation.
  
  
• Workaround: Unplug and re-plug the power cord, then power on the console normally—the console should go through the standard start up sequence and land on the dashboard.
  

[b]Pins[/b]

• If Microsoft Edge was pinned prior to downloading the 1804 update, attempting to launch Microsoft Edge from the existing pin will fail.
  
  
• Workaround: Delete the old Microsoft Edge pin and re-pin Microsoft Edge.
  

[b]Dolby Atmos[/b]

• You may notice audio drops in receivers using Dolby Atmos for Home Theater.
  

[b]Netflix[/b]

• If Netflix crashes when first launched, check for an app update on the Store or from My games & apps.
  

[b]HBO Go[/b]

• If HBO GO crashes when first launched, check for an app update on the Store or from My games & apps.
  

[b]Settings[/b]

• When accessing the Language & location page in Settings, it may take a long time for the page to load.
  

[b]Store[/b]

• When browsing Add-Ons in the Store, the Show All page may appear blank
  

[b]Pi-Hole[/b]

• Pi-hole users may encounter issues signing in, creating, or recovering accounts upon downloading the 1804 update. This is due to a new configuration file which is downloaded from a URL Pi-hole blocks by default.
  
  
• Workaround: Add clientconfig.passport.net to the Pi-hole allowed IP address list.
