| -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------- | ------------------------------ |
| The title is a UWP SUA submission and doesn't support a constrained state and instead enters a suspended state.                                                                                                                              | Not Relevant (-4) | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |

| The title is constrained at the account picker and enters an unresponsive state when resumed.                                                                                                                                                | Not Relevant (-4) | XBOX One, XBOX Series          |

| A non-interactive pause is presented typically lasting between 10–20 seconds.                                                                                                                                                                | Minor (2)         | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |
| The title enters a non-interactive pause exceeding 20 seconds which only occurs on the XBOX One console type.                                                                                                                                | Minor (2)         | XBOX One                       |
| A moderate/minor amount of saved data becomes corrupted, unintentionally deleted, or inaccessible which doesn't require a large amount of time to reobtain.                                                                                  | Moderate (6)      | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |
| The title enters a recoverable partially unresponsive state that can be resolved without termination.                                                                                                                                        | Moderate (6)      | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |

| The title contains a loading screen which is either more than 2 minutes with no indication of progress, or more than 3 minutes with a progress indicator.                                                                                    | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |
| The title causes a console reboot, crashes, becomes indefinitely unresponsive, or unexpectedly resets to title screen.                                                                                                                       | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |
| A significant amount of saved data becomes corrupted, unintentionally deleted, or inaccessible which requires a large amount of time for the user to reobtain (for example, a save made during the current game, a missing checkpoint save). | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |
| The title enters an unrecoverable partially unresponsive state which requires termination to resolve.                                                                                                                                        | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |
| The title crashes after granting parental permission via the system UI for any privilege.                                                                                                                                                    | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series, Windows |

**Notes**

* Be aware of issues that are inconsistent between CERT and CERT.DEBUG sandboxes.
* Loading times are about setting user expectations and creating an experience that works in the game. For example, if all load times are always about 1 minute with an animated spinner, then suddenly a level takes 10 minutes, the user perceives something is wrong with the game or console.
* "Partially unresponsive state" means that the title remains unresponsive to the majority of user input, but does respond to minimal controller input (such as A button input, left or right stick input, and so on).
* Titles under 3 GB in size with an initial play marker greater than 65% can use the reduced Probability -3 for occurrence when stability issues are encountered during streaming install. Titles outside of this threshold should start with a Probability 2 and increase as needed.

### 001-02 Title Stability After Suspending

| Scenario                                                                                                                                                                     | Severity          | Platform              |
| ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ----------------- | --------------------- |
| The title returns the user to the IIS or previous menu upon resuming from a suspended state, but save data to the user's last saved location can be loaded without issue.    | Not Relevant (-4) | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| The title is UWP and boots from a terminated state.                                                                                                                          | Not Relevant (-4) | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| No current scenario.                                                                                                                                                         | Very Minor (1)    |                       |
| No current scenario.                                                                                                                                                         | Minor (2)         |                       |
| During a loading screen, the title is suspended. When it resumes, the title restarts from the initial boot sequence (pre-IIS).                                               | Moderate (6)      | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| The title only supports manual saves and returns the user to the IIS or a previous menu following a suspension; progress generated after the last known manual save is lost. | Moderate (6)      | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| The title reports `Package execution state: 0 (unknown)` as a result of either returning from suspended state, or failure to suspend.                                        | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| The title is suspended outside of a loading screen, and when returning from that suspended state it then reboots back to the initial boot sequence (pre-IIS).                | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| The user can't reestablish a connection with the partner-hosted service when resuming from a suspended state.                                                                | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| After resuming from a suspension, the title no longer saves data when expected.                                                                                              | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| The user can't reestablish a connection with the online multiplayer services after resuming the title from a suspended state.                                                | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| Upon returning from a suspended state, the user can't view or post to leaderboards. This issue persists through termination \[See FMA Notes].                                | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| The title launches from a terminated state when resuming from a suspended state.                                                                                             | Critical (12)     | XBOX One, XBOX Series |
| No current scenario.                                                                                                                                                         | Catastrophic (22) |                       |

**Notes**

* Known system issue: Disconnect the LAN cable from the console, boot the title, reconnect the LAN cable and wait for connectivity, and then suspend the title. The title reports `Package execution state: 0 (unknown)`.
* When returning from a suspended state, a title is expected to regain full functionality, which includes reestablishing a connection to online or partner services. If a user returns from a suspended state and can't view an online service, such as leaderboards, but scores are still tracked and verified that they post to the leaderboards following a termination, the title reestablished the connection to online or partner services, but the feature isn't functioning as expected (log under Title Integrity — Moderate in most cases).
* Suggested probability of 6 for core or likely areas of the title (for example, main menu). Probability of -3 for suspending during a loading screen. Increase or decrease where it's felt appropriate to do so.
