I have been using Xbox Game Bar to record and its going good but one problem is what are...

Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

My name is welcome to the community.

Hello Theo, Have you tried any other screen capture app to check if the same vertical line appears in the captures?

have you checked if you have the latest version of Windows installed, at 22H2.

See which version of Windows 10 you have

Updates are often seen as optional.

Also, make sure all Xbox Apps are up to date in the store, and make sure you have the Xbox Companion App installed, it works with the Xbox App.

After you've done these procedures, see if you have your video card drive updated and set up correctly for use in the Xbox Game Bar.

Hello,

If I record other things there aren't bars.

Its only with Roblox but before I have that problem could I record it and then there aren't bars.

Hi,

The first question we need to ask is have you ever been able to record using Game bar?

Gamebar recording requires compatible hardware, what PC are you using?

I will have to wait to see what the OP responds if this works or not for them, and then can troubleshoot further with more details. Until then I found some resources for troubleshooting this issue:

• Fix problems with Xbox Game Bar on Windows
  
• Xbox Game Bar - Cannot Record Video - Microsoft Community
  
• XBox Game Bar Recording Top Left Corner - Microsoft Community
  
• X-Box Gamebar Recording in the Corner with Black border - Microsoft Community
  

Thanks,

Hi sadiemlikj,

Thank you for your reply, this helps a lot.

To answer your question about what the Xbox Game Bar records, the application only records the last thing you clicked on. What I recommend is that you open up whatever application you want to record (Roblox, etc.) and then start recording, which will capture the game.

I just tried it and experienced the Game Bar only recording my browser, but when I stopped my recording, minimized my browser, opened Minecraft, and then started the recording again - it recorded my Minecraft gameplay. Only have open what you would like to record. The application does not record your desktop. If you would like your entire desktop to be recorded, I recommend using OBS (Open Broadcast System) and setting up your recordings that way.

Regarding the error you are experiencing, it is something that I am unable to reproduce. If you are trying to make a new Microsoft account, we recommend that you do so by using this link. Please download the Xbox App onto your PC and sign into your new Microsoft account there and see if you have any additional errors or long loading times.

You can record without opening the Xbox Game Bar by pressing "Win + Alt + R", which will start the recording automatically. You can change this to whatever you like by going to Settings > Gaming and setting up the shortcut there. Also, on this Setting Screen make sure that "Enable Xbox Game Bar for things like recording game clips, chatting with friends, and receiving game invites" is toggled ON.

Another step you can try is to repair/reset the Xbox Game Bar application. You can do this by going to Settings > Apps and then type in "Xbox Game Bar" or search for Xbox Game Bar in the list. When you find it, select "Advanced Options" and then select "Repair" and "Reset".

If the problem persists, please let me know.

Sincerely,
