XBOX ONE X MISSING BOOT ANIMATION

Hello. I replaced my HDD in my Xbox One X because the old one had gone bad. I followed a tutorial on how to format and replace my hard drive. I formatted the hard drive correctly, did the Offline Update with the OSU1 file, plugged the hard drive back into my computer and I put the bootanim.dat onto the drive. I put the drive back in the xbox and still no boot animation (starts up fine)

I pulled the drive back out of the xbox and plugged into my PC and the bootanim.dat file that i put into the drive prior just disappeared, poof, gone. I am not sure but it seems that its deleting itself for some reason?

I formatted correctly, offline updater worked just fine, i put the bootanim.dat file in both A and B folders, made sure to get the latest file for the boot animation.. I am at an impasse and it's been bothering me for a long time now.

I threw an SSD into my One X last month? and had the same issue. Your only fix is to wait for an OTA update to come along and then it'll be back.
