Hello, I cant use game bar because "your pc doesnt meet the hardwer req. for captures"

Hi Levi, thanks for your question. I'm happy to help.

I found the below answer that seemed to help someone with similar issues to yours.

Click on the windows button

Search the term ''Gpedit''

Click on ''Edit Group Policy''

And follow the path Computer Configuration\Administrative Templates\Windows Components\Windows Game Recording and Broadcasting

Double click on the file within this path

Make sure the option enabled is checked, if not check it, and click apply, and then OK.

*Restart your computer after this.

Nice to meet you and I hope you are having a great day!

I understand you need help in checking your captures from the console companion app.

Just to verify, you always check your captures or clips when pressing Windows+alt+G, is that correct? Because that is actually through the game bar but not on the console companion app. You can share your game clips using the game bar and game bar will not be removed from your PC or shut down.

The capture menu on your phone is meant for videos and screenshots you captured on Xbox and on PC using the Game Bar. You can't capture Minecraft on your iOS through Xbox. You'll need to use a third party app for that.

I understand you need help game bar problem.

Please try to reset the game bar app on your PC.

Click Start and click Settings; Select Apps & features. Find the Xbox game bar app and click Advanced options. Click Reset then also click repair.

Once done, restart your PC and try again.

But there are times that it will take long to upload the captures due to server delays but they should not be doing that all the time.

Hope that helps.
