    For some games I am unable to upload captures to the Xbox network


    My problem is similar to the one mentioned here: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...s/bd710fa6-c055-47cb-8d57-f42ba915d195?page=2 I'm not seeing the "Copy Link" button for some games but for others the button is there and the upload is working properly. The "Copy Link" button appears for the other game after I switched back and forth to a capture of a game where it's working and when I click it I'm getting the error message "There was a problem uploading this to the Xbox network"

    I don't understand why the above mentioned topic has been closed. Especially as @XBF John said it would be best to use the feedback hub and then post a link in the thread here so people can find it.

    Anyways I did exactly that so you can find the issue on the feedback hub here: https://aka.ms/AAj47fu

    Thank you for your welcoming response.

    I've got to ask though if I read you correctly. I've already posted the same issue on the feedback hub (same link as in my original question above), as I'm experiencing the problem using Windows. Do you recommend to provide it again?

    Thanks for pointing me to the overview page of getting support in any case.

    Are game captures on the Xbox Network ALSO saved to the console’s internal storage?

    "do captures save to the console’s internal storage regardless of whether or not they’re uploaded to the Xbox Network?"

    All captures are initially stored on the console before they can be uploaded to the Xbox Network.

    Only the captures you choose to be uploaded will be unless you choose automatic uploads in your Settings options.

    Only uploaded captures (ie on the Xbox network) can be shared to your profile, clubs, etc.

    There is a finite space for captures on the console so if space is all used up any further captures will overwrite the oldest captures.

    Its possible to have a copy of a capture on the console as well as on the Xbox network but this limits your consoles storage for new captures. After uploading it's best to delete the console copy.

    9-days-old Captures Missing

    Hi Alexkatbat! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    When you make a capture, the file that represents it exists only on your console. Uploading your captures to the Xbox network is helpful for two things: viewing your captures when you’re using a mobile or PC app from Xbox, and sharing your captures.

    Automatic uploading is standard, but in case you need to turn it on, press the Xbox button  to open the guide, and then go to Profile & system > Settings > Preferences > Capture & share > Automatically upload.

    To upload a capture that wasn’t uploaded automatically, select the capture, and then select Upload.

    Things to keep in mind

    You can upload up to 10 GB of captures to the Xbox network. Once you reach those limits, you’ll need to delete existing captures to upload new ones.

    Any game clip or screenshot uploaded to the Xbox network that gets no views in 30 days will be deleted. Viewing it yourself counts as a view and saves a capture from deletion.

    Captures that don't get uploaded to the Xbox network will remain on the console they were recorded on.

    All this information it's available on support site

    Xbox game bar does not upload captures and clips

    Hi Ricardo

    I want the app to upload it to Xbox network so i can share the link.

    I dont want to send the file using a specific software/website, i want it to be on the network as I'm used to do on my xbox, i always capture and it automatically uploads the capture to the xbox network and i usually share the link for the clip/capture.

    As shown in the image attached the game bar says "there was a problem getting the link for this capture. Try again in a little bit."

    Thanks in advance
