Last night, I was playing a game on my Xbox 360 when it gave me an error that the saved game was corrupted. It just happened out of the blue.

How to Restore Xbox 360 Saved Games

The "Corrupted Save Game" error typically occurs when a player attempts to play a saved game on their gaming console. Usually, if you've logged out and back in multiple times but the issue persists, further steps must be taken.

Like with the PS4, an average Xbox 360 user can't simply repair corrupted game files on the Xbox 360 console itself. You'll have to take further steps to resolve the issue.

So far, the Xbox support team has provided two official solutions to help you with this error.

Step 2: After the scan is finished, click on the “Video” option from the left side. Now look for your desired video from “Lost Files” or “All Files” category. Select the videos that you have found and hit “Preview”.

Step 3: Choose the video files you want to recover. Click “Recover” to save them to another secure location on your computer or an external storage device.
