Game Bar Multiple Monitors

Sid Barker · Feb 21, 2020

I'm having a bit of trouble with recording since I'm pretty clueless with this stuff. I have two monitors - I use one for gaming and the other for anything else, usually youtube or netflix. I want to
record my game screen uninterrupted, but when I click the monitor that isn't being recorded, the recording stops. Is there a way to continue recording the game while I browse on the 2nd monitor?

:)

I was afraid of that. A bit disappointing, but at least I have my answer. Thank you!

Hopefully this thread can help you out. It may be a processor problem but i believe you can’t use your other screen
while trying to use the gamebar

First, welcome to the Xbox community. The Game DVR for Windows 10 will allow you to record your games while playing on a single monitor only. If you are using multiple screens to play your game or use your apps, it will capture the activities done on the monitor when you last clicked your mouse cursor.

The short answer is you don't. It does not properly support multiple monitors at this time.
