    How to change windows game bar save location


    from what i know , we can change the save location by cutting the captures folder into the new location so the new recording will be there right?
    i did that when i use windows 10 , now i upgrade to windows 11 , it changed itself to temp folder....

    how do i change the save location then?
    do i just cut the temp folder to new location?
    will it affect anything?

    :)

    Hi JACK! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    In theory, if you haven't deleted the folder path you should still have it on the same location, but yes, you can change the location again if you copy the folder that is being used currently to a new location

    Microsoft Xbox game bar Captures folder is messed up

    Hi DrSeuss7519,

    Have you completed all troubleshooting recommendations on the Xbox Game Bar found on Support.Xbox.com?

    Do not know what version of windows you have, but on Windows 11 you can navigate to Settings > Gaming > Captures > Captures location. From here you can change the game capture save location.

    Best regards,

    XBF Drew

    Where is temporary footage from Game Bar captures stored?

    Hello, I'm Felipe and I'm an independent Community Expert, and I'll do my best to help you.

    The temporary data for background recordings in the Windows Game Bar is stored in the RAM of your computer and is not saved to disk. It is stored as a buffer in the memory, and the video is not saved to disk until you explicitly choose to save it by pressing Win + Alt + G and selecting "Save".

    Once you choose to save the recording, it is saved to a folder of your choice on your local disk. By default, the saved recordings are stored in the "Videos" folder in your "Documents" directory. You can change the default save location for the recordings by going to the Windows Game Bar settings and modifying the "Recorded videos" option.

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

    Are you saying your new captures are being saved in the path you mentioned?

    Have you tried to create a folder called ''captures'' in the desired drive location?

    Can I extend the playback feature (Replay feature) of the Xbox Game Bar from 10 minutes to 1 hour?

    I assume by the 'playback feature' you mean the record time? The Windows Game Bar maximum record time that can be set is 4hrs. This can be changed in Windows Settings > Gaming > Captures.

    The Windows Game-Bar uses a video recording codec that requires the file to be finalised in order for it to be saved. This means that either if the recording is stopped via the Game Bar or the recording ends on its own once the maximum time is reached, the file should save. If for some reason there a fault or a system crash, the video recording won't save as it won't complete the 'finalising' process.
