It completed about 5-10 minutes later finally. So there is that. :smileyfrustrated:

Appreciate this is getting off topic but last night I noticed a message about downloads being slower due to a running game. I quit the game and downloads jumped to between 200Mbps-300Mbps so I expect the Xbox has worked that way for a while but now they are informing us of that limiting factor. Good to know Circle Home Plus is not causing the slow speeds.
