Xbox gamer Coniption1118 discovered that one of the most annoying issues in the Xbox Store has been fixed by Microsoft after years of complaints from fans. The new Xbox Store update now lets users browse their wish list without being sent back to the first entry after backing out of a title’s store page. This revamped wish list feature will keep track of the game that the user last selected, allowing them to read and sort through titles more quickly. After receiving the store update, Coniption1118 rebooted theirXbox Series X|S consolemultiple times to ensure that the feature continues to work as intended.
Although the new Xbox Store update fixes one of the most glaring issues, some fans are still dissatisfied with the overall user experience.

Microsoft’s latest store update is a step in the right direction and complements the latest firmware update on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S.
