How to FIX PS4 Copying Update Error (Easy Solution)

Follow

Pause and Resume: Sometimes, the copying process might be stuck due to background tasks. Pause the copying, wait for a minute, and then resume it.

Restart the PS4: A simple restart can sometimes resolve various system issues. Turn off your PS4 completely, wait for a few moments, and then turn it back on.

Free Up Space: Insufficient free space on your PS4's hard drive can cause issues during updates. Delete unnecessary games, applications, videos, and screenshots to free up space. Make sure you have at least double the size of the update available as free space.

Rebuild Database: Rebuilding the PS4's database can potentially resolve performance and update issues. To do this, boot your PS4 into Safe Mode:

Turn off the PS4 completely.
Hold down the power button until you hear two beeps (about 7 seconds). This will boot the PS4 in Safe Mode.
Connect a DualShock 4 controller using a USB cable and select the "Rebuild Database" option.
Check Internet Connection: A stable and fast internet connection is crucial for smooth updates. Make sure your PS4 is connected to a stable network with a good signal.

Use a Wired Connection: If you're using a wireless connection, try connecting your PS4 to the internet using an Ethernet cable. Wired connections tend to be more stable and faster for downloading and updating.

Cancel and Retry: If the copying process is taking too long, consider canceling the update and then redownloading it. Sometimes, the downloaded update file might have been corrupted.

Check for System Software Update: Ensure that your PS4's system software is up to date. Outdated system software can sometimes cause issues with game updates. Go to Settings System Software Update to check for any available updates.

Check for GameSpecific Solutions: If the issue is occurring with a specific game, check the official support forums or website for that game. Developers often provide specific solutions for common issues related to their games.

Initialize PS4: If none of the above solutions work, you might need to consider initializing your PS4. This should be your last resort, as it will erase all data on the console, including games, settings, and saves. To do this:

Go to Settings Initialization Initialize PS4 Full.
Follow the onscreen instructions.
