What it means
Xbox shows 0x80BD0006 when you try to connect to Xbox Live or use some Xbox Live features on an Xbox One console, and says it may mean your profile is corrupted. The code points at the profile stored on the console, not at the network or the hardware. After ruling out a service alert, the page removes the gamertag profile from the console and adds it back with Add new, the Microsoft account password and the sign-in and security preferences.
