how do i view my xbox screenshots and captures on my pc? the option for captures doesnt...

There is currently no official way to view snapshots or captures from your Xbox console on your PC.

Hi Vlannigen, my name is Rodrigo. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

You can use the Game Bar.

Please press Windows Key + G to open it.

You can access it on the Captures widget.

Let me know if it works!

How are you?

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.

You can also store your screenshots and videos on your PC, OneDrive, and your phone.

Yes, you can view the screenshots you take in-game anywhere on your PC. There are two ways to do it:

1. Use the Xbox app for Windows
The Xbox app for Windows allows you to access your Xbox screenshots from your PC. To do so, follow these steps:

-Open the Xbox app for Windows.
-Click on the "Profile" button in the upper right corner of the screen.
-Click on "Captures".

You will see a list of all your screenshots. You can click on a screenshot to view it full size. You can also download the screenshot by clicking the "Download" button.

2. Use the OneDrive app

If you have automatic uploading of screenshots to OneDrive turned on, you can access your screenshots from anywhere on your PC. To check if auto-upload is enabled, follow these steps:

-Open the Xbox Settings app.
-Click on "Games".
-Click on "Captures".

You'll see an option to "Automatically upload screenshots to OneDrive." If the option is enabled, your screenshots will automatically upload to OneDrive when you take them.

To access your OneDrive screenshots, open the OneDrive website or the OneDrive app on your PC. You'll see a folder called "Xbox Captures." Inside this folder, you will see all your screenshots. You can click on a screenshot to view it full size. You can also download the screenshot by clicking the "Download" button.

If you don't have automatic uploading of screenshots to OneDrive turned on, you can manually transfer screenshots to your PC. To do so, follow these steps:

-Connect your Xbox to your PC with a USB cable.
-Open File Explorer on your PC.
-Navigate to your Xbox drive.
-Look for the "Captures" folder.
-Copy the screenshots you want to transfer to your PC.
-Paste the screenshots to a location on your PC.
-Once you have transferred the screenshots to your PC, you can view, edit and share them however you want.

I hope the information I gave you has been useful, have a happy day.

Hi Ricardo,

As I mentioned in a separate reply, it appears that these captures were not deleted and I can still view them on my Xbox if I filter my captures for screenshots. The issue is screenshots older than 9 days are not viewable on the Xbox app or the Xbox console companion on Windows, meaning I cannot save any of the older screenshots to my computer or phone.

Edit: To be clear, all of the screenshots in question were uploaded to the Xbox network.
