Game Bar/Xbox App not Showing Game

Player30219361 is showing on any Xbox game on PC on either single-player or multiplayer games, it is also showing on Xbox Console Companion, but not on Xbox app or game bar

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.

hello,

ms-settings:appsfeatures doesnt bring up any options to reset game bar.

the mic works fine when game bar isnt in background.

game bar isnt listed in apps and yet searching in store shows game bar as installed.

Hi Dan,

Thank you for posting on the Xbox forums.

That's pretty odd that the volume adjustments for other apps have disappeared from the Game Bar. What apps did you normally use this feature with and are those apps currently open and running? Have you checked in the Microsoft Store for any updates to the
Game Bar? Or checked for any new updates to Windows?

If everything is up to date, and if the apps that worked before are running in the background, but you cannot adjust the volume for those apps through the Game Bar, then it may be best to restart Game Bar.

1. Close the game or app.
2. In the search box on the Windows taskbar, type Task Manager, and then select it.
3. In Task Manager, select More details.
4. In the list of running processes, select the Broadcast bar server (bcastdvr.exe) process (if it's still there), and then select
   End task.
5. Restart your game or app and check the Game Bar again.

Let us know if this helps!

I've used Ziggo Go, Firefox, Chrome. (They are running now, but don't show up). It also used to showed some other apps, but I don't remember which ones.

Game bar and Windows are up to date.

I can't find the bcastdvr.exe process, closed other game bar processes, but didn't solve anything.

good evening

There are a few potential solutions for this issue:

Make sure you and your friends are all using the same version of the Xbox Game Bar app.

Try resetting the Xbox Game Bar app by going to the Windows Settings > Apps > Xbox Game Bar > Advanced Options > Reset.

Check your privacy settings on Xbox Game Bar by going to the Windows Settings > Privacy > Xbox Game Bar > Make sure "Allow invites and game invites from Xbox Game Bar" is turned on.

Try disabling the Xbox Game Bar app and then re-enabling it.,

If none of the above solutions work, try uninstalling and reinstalling the Xbox Game Bar app.

Press the Windows key + I to open the Windows Settings app.

Click on "Apps."

Scroll down and find "Xbox Game Bar."

Click on "Xbox Game Bar" and then click on "Advanced options."

Under "App settings," you'll see an option to "Pause" or "Uninstall" the app. Click on "Pause" and wait for the process to complete.

After disabling the app, you can re-enable it by going back to the "Advanced options" and clicking on "Resume" instead of "Pause"

Alternatively, you can try uninstalling the Xbox Game Bar app and then reinstalling it by following these steps:

Press the Windows key + I to open the Windows Settings app.

Click on "Apps."

Scroll down and find "Xbox Game Bar."

Click on "Xbox Game Bar" and then click on "Uninstall."

Confirm the action by clicking on "Uninstall" again.

After uninstalling the app, you can reinstall it from the Microsoft Store.

You can also try to use the Steam in-game overlay instead of Xbox Game Bar.

You can enable or disable the Steam overlay by going to Steam Settings > In-Game > Enable the Steam Overlay while in-game.

It may be a bug or an issue with the Xbox Game Bar app, so it's worth trying different solutions to see if one of them resolves the issue.
