    How to remove game bar?

    Yeah I YouTube that and there was some instructions but however when I opened the Powershell showed my name. Then when I entered the command it did not work possibly I didn't have one horizontal vertical bars in the command. Not sure how to get to show run as administrator meaning I did not have the option when I opened the Power shell. I also tried to disable it by talking off the game bar terminating it. It didn't work but this time I restarted it to see if windows can remember my settings to see if that works. My main beef with the game bar and it just keeps popping up every 2 seconds but mainly I'm not using it so I'll try to uninstall it at some point or at least it's disable it down if that's the easiest way.

    You can't remove it, but you can disable it. It will likely start again when you restart your computer though. Only Windows 11 Pro can stop Game Bar more permanently via the Group Policy Editor. If you don't have Windows 11 Pro, you can't do this though.

    We get this question quite a lot. The thinking usually being that Game Bar is using extra resources slowing down a PC it does not do this.

    Even on my PC used for games, Game Bar is only using between 0.0 and 0.1%. And unless it's used, the Xbox App is always 0%

    How to remove game bar?

    you you can remove it but it will come back every time you update. Just don't use it, like so many other parts of windows you don't use. It's part of the operating system system it is not an optional utility

    You can use power shell to remove it.

    NOTE: THIS IS COMMAND LINE, IF YOU DO SOMETHING WRONG, YOU CAN DESTROY YOUR COMPUTER. I DO NOT WORK FOR MICROSOFT.

    1. Start windows power shell as admin (windows 10) or start windows terminal (admin) (windows 11)
    2. Type this command Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay* | Remove-AppxPackage
    3. Wait for the command to finish
    4. Restart your computer
    To reverse this, just get gamebar from the MS store
