  1. Xbox Game Bar not working for PC


    I've been running into an issue with my Game Bar not loading my xbox social tabs. It comes up with a warning symbol and with a text that says "Something isn't playing nice."

    I've tried to go to the settings for game bar and repair, reset, and even terminate. None of which have worked yet. I've also tried uninstalling game bar and xbox apps on my PC and reinstalling still doesn't fix the issue.

    Does MS seem to have limited purse strings?

    I'd love to use the game bar in pc games, it be good to share screen shots with friends on xbox. The thing just doesn't work properly in full screen though. I managed to take a screen of a game on pc through the game bar, when I went to share it, it just
    came up as not recognised. Think it was the witcher.

    Xbox Game Bar to record

    If you're referring to the Xbox Game Bar on PC, it saves to your hard drive as default. If you go to the Settings app on your PC, click on 'Gaming', and then on the side bar, click on 'Captures'. That will show you where the Xbox Game Bar recordings and
    screenshots are stored.

    XBOX Game Bar for PC Not Working right

    Let's try to:

    If nothing happens when you press the Windows logo key + G, check your Game bar settings. Open the Xbox app, and select Settings > Gaming and make sure Record game clips, screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar is On.

    If Game bar doesn’t appear for a full-screen game, try keyboard shortcuts: Press the Windows logo key + Alt + R to start recording a clip, then press it again to stop. You’ll see the screen flash when the recording starts and ends.
