How do I fix the NW-31449-1 error on my PS4?

1. Perform a full reboot on your PS4

In the same way, rebooting a computer can fix most software and hardware related issues, rebooting your console can do the same thing.

After all, your console uses PC architecture and runs on a branch of the FreeBSD operating system.

Rebooting and power cycling your console will delete any leftover data in its cache and disconnect it completely from your network.

In laymen’s terms, congestion of cached data could be the root cause of not only an NW-31449-1 error but variousPS4 update errorstoo.

2. Ensure that your PS4 has enough space

If you’ve recently updated your PS4’s software, then you may have far less space than you originally bargained for.

Alternatively, the patch or game you’re trying download may be bigger than you originally thought it would be. This can cause a plethora of issues.

Much like theCE-35694-7 PS4 error, the NW-31449-1 code could be caused by a scarcity of space on your PS4’s hard drive.

You can always re-download a game after you delete it. So once you delete it, it’s not lost forever and you haven’t flushed your money down the toilet.

3. Rebuild your database

Rebuilding your PS4’s database can take up to an hour. During this time, the system will parse through all its files and delete any corrupted data.  You’ll need to exercise a bit of patience during the process.

In addition to possibly solving your PS4’s NW-31449-1 error code, rebuilding your database will also help you if:
