How do I update my Xbox system?
These are official Microsoft steps for updating your Xbox Console
Automatically update your Xbox:
By default, your console is set to receive updates automatically. In this mode, each night, your console checks whether any updates are available, and then it downloads and installs the updates when the console isn't being used. This reduces the impact updates have on your Xbox experience, and they won't block you from connecting to the Xbox network unless they become mandatory.
