PS4 Update 10.00 Causing DLC Issues for Some, Here’s a Workaround
A number of players have reported PS4 update 10 DLC issues on social media but luckily, there’s a workaround. Although the issue affects a small proportion of players overall, sites like Reddit were inundated with threads from concerned players who reported that their games’ DLCs were wiped out after updating the console. And it looks like those who are using external storage drives are the ones affected.
PS4 update 10 DLC issue solution
As discovered by Reddit user SegaJAM, players don’t have to reinstall the content (sorry if you’ve already gone through that). All you have to do is temporarily stop your console from using your extended storage and then re-scan your external drive. Simple! Follow these steps:
- Hold the PS Button while on the Dashboard
- Go to Sound/Devices and select Stop Using Extended Storage
- Once confirmed, you’ll receive a message stating that your external drive can be safely removed, but there’s no need to unplug it!
- Restart your PS4
- Let the PS4 reboot and scan your external drive, and your DLC will magically work again

- If you are updating your PlayStation®4 console via the internet, go to Settings > System Software Update and retry the update.
