    Game Bar Features Missing


    When I press win + G i get the game bar to open, but it only includes image & video capture and streaming. There's no home button (the 3 dot stack), no performance monitor overlays, just the xbox console companion, captures file and settings. I've been
    through the game bar settings and start>settings>gaming and not found any way to activate the missing features. The guide found here shows
    features I don't have.

    This image shows what I have available

    Is your account signed in? It doesn't look like it on that picture. Did you at anytime close any of the sub windows by clicking on the X at the top right? I just tried mine and it is all correct I closed out one window, shut it down and restarted the
    game bar, that window did not come back by default as I had closed it.

    What are the two lines on the left? That's where my settings icon is so have you possibly customized this and now it isn't displaying data you possibly customized out?

    With the new update a lot of things changed, I recommend that you enter to see the information of the update 1903

    I can confirm I am running 1903 and the features are NOT there.

    After another update (to the 1903 build) the overlay is now showing as intended. Issue resolved, thread can be closed.

    Thanks guys.

    Hi guys. Sorry for my brief reply yesterday, "life" hit the fan.

    So after updating to 1903, the appearance of the interface has changed to the image below. I cant move this new window and there's still no home button.

    The images I'm including are all from google as I haven't been able to find a way of screen-grabbing the interface. I
    am logged into my account and clicking on my profile pic (or previously my name) opens the xbox console companion.

    Edit to add: I only started using this app yesterday, so haven't made any changes or customization.
