What a technician must be able to justify
Technician visit
These are the steps they must carry out and show you. Tick them as they work: if steps are skipped, do not accept a part swap.
These are not instructions for opening or handling the equipment yourself. They are the checks that should support a technical conclusion.
Before accepting a part or repair
Nothing has been shown yet. Do not accept a part swap based on the code alone.
Follow these steps
Note: Follow the documented order. An error code identifies the affected system, but it does not prove by itself which part has failed.
Reinsert the same disc
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- put the disc you were installing back into the Xbox One console and leave it inside for the rest of the process.
- Result that matters:
- that the console has the disc again before you retry, since the install needs it inserted until the end.
- If you had swapped discs:
- use the disc of the title that showed 80070015, not another game.
- If the disc is back in:
- go on to start the install again from Games & apps.
- Evidence to keep:
- the title name and the time you reinserted the disc.

Start the install again from Games & apps
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- press the Xbox button on the controller to open the guide, select Games & apps > See all > Games, locate the title and try to install it again.
- Result that matters:
- whether the install now runs to the end with the disc inside.
- If it completes:
- the earlier eject was the cause and the title should be ready.
- If 80070015 appears again with the disc never removed:
- note it, because the cause Xbox describes no longer fits.
- Evidence to keep:
- a photo of the install progress or of the repeated error.

Launch the title once installed
- Who:
- you.
- How:
- with the disc still in the console, start the title from Games once the install has finished.
- Result that matters:
- whether the title opens without the error.
- If it opens:
- the interrupted disc install is confirmed as the cause.
- If it does not:
- keep the photo of the code and the steps you took, since Xbox gives no further step on this page.
- Evidence to keep:
- date, title and result of the launch.

What it means
Xbox shows 80070015 when a title is being installed from disc and the disc is ejected from the Xbox One before the installation completes. Xbox says it may mean the installation did not finish while the disc was inserted, so the copy from the disc to the console stopped halfway. The code describes an interrupted install from the optical disc, not a fault in the disc drive or the console storage, and the page's only remedy is to reinsert the disc and install or launch the title again.

Symptoms and causes
Probable causes · in order
- Disc ejected during the installCommon
This is the trigger Xbox names: the disc came out before the install from it was complete. It fits when you know the disc was removed or swapped mid install.
Evidence: Error 80070015 occurs when you try to install a title on your Xbox One
- Installation left incompletePossible
Xbox adds that the install may simply not have finished while the disc was in. A full reinstall with the disc kept inside tells it apart: if that install completes, nothing else was wrong.
