How to Share/Post in-game taken screenshots from PC to the Xbox App? And is there a way to...

Thanks for the extra update!

I didn't see your edit.

But yes, for now the upload screenshots has been disabled

Let's see if Microsoft decides to re-add it in the future.

For now we may need to wait

Hi Josef, thank you for your response!

Ah, so you are right about that, I did not know the Xbox Console Companion app was an available download via the Windows 11 Micrsoft Store. I previously had thought the Companion App was tied and only available on Windows 10. I thought they completely did away with it and replaced it with the newer Xbox app.

Anyway, well I did just download it and try the app out and I tried to upload an in-game taken screenshot and unfortunately it states:

"This app no longer supports this feature

Game clips and screenshots can only be uploaded from an Xbox console at this time."

So, I assume the answer is it is not possible at all to do this anymore from a PC.
Also yes, I had updated my post probably right before you replied, I had found the answer to my second question.

Well, I will still mark your post as a solution for taking your time to provide some insight on this, thank you.
Just a shame you can't really use this feature anymore on PC.

Edit: I like the picture of the cat on your shoulder in the profile picture lol

You can download the Xbox console companion app in Windows 11 via Microsoft Store

Right now I'm not able to test in my Windows 11 PC to see if the ability to post your screenshot to your activity feed is available. (if you can do it for me in order to double check that could be great)

But as far as I know is now not possible to upload/share screenshots from PC to the Xbox Live network

About the second question, you can still look for groups (LFG) but now you do it using the game bar.

To do it press Windows + G > Click on Widget menu > Looking for a group

Hi Dem Alesis,

Thanks for your post. Unfortunately, there is not a way to associate external screenshots with games when uploaded through the companion app. The screenshot must be taken via game bar or on an Xbox One to have the game associated with the capture. Since
Steam is another platform, it's game data that associated with screenshots will not show on the Xbox console companion app.

I hope this answers your question.

Hi DrPepperNPizza,

You can post screenshots taken from a game on the Xbox app. You can also post screenshots or video clips taken from other apps on your computer by using the Game DVR on Windows 10. When playing a game, press the
Windows logo key + G to open Game bar. Select "Yes, this is a game" if you see a screen asking if you want to open Game bar. With this action, you will be able to take screenshot or video clips on other games
or apps on your computer.

Let us know if that works for you.
