Thank you and have a great day!

I am able to upload screenshots and videos taken only on Xbox game pass games using Xbox's game capture.

The problem with that is enabling Xbox game bar and game dvr is widely known to the pc community to cause poor performance while gaming.

My problem is that before the Game Pass update I was able to upload screenshots and videos of games I purchased from steam and epic store using Nvidia's screen capture.

Can I still upload screenshots and videos taken from games not on Xbox game pass without using Xbox's Game capture?

EDIT: I found the solution... We used to be able to upload content with Xbox app (beta) which updated into the game pass app and Xbox app updated to Xbox Console Companion. However a new app was added to the Microsoft store called Xbox Console Companion
- beta. That is the app that allows you to upload screenshots/videos of games not from Game Pass, Microsoft Store or Xbox Game capture.

We were able to before Xbox (beta) turned into Game Pass Ultimate. I've even had help from Microsoft support a long time ago when some of my screenshots from steam weren't uploading. I've uploaded hundreds of screenshots/videos from "outside sources" to
Xbox Live in my capture gallery for this account and still is available for everyone to see.

So I'm 100% positive that we used to be able to atleast and I wasnt the only one. I and alot of other users uploaded content from "outside sources" to Xbox Clubs and now our club is dying. No one seems to know what happened. No one knows if this feature
was removed intentionally or if there is a new method to upload content from "outside sources".

It seems to me that you weren't even aware of this feature at all so if you guys can find out any information on this I would really appreciate it. I wouldn't be here if I hadn't already searched the internet for days for information.

Hello,

PurriWasTaken I did not pay attention either to this modification but I come at the moment to do it and it works correctly. If you took a picture on PC (in my case SuperHot on Game Pass Ultimate on Xbox (beta) app), you must launch the other app (Xbox Console
Companion).

Once in the Xbox Console Companion application, click in the left column on Screenshots and choose the source of the image:

On this PC or Xbox Live.

On this PC in your case. To test something similar to you, I had to move the image, change its name and also retouched it in dimension. No problem, I was able to upload it without
worries.

Hope this helped you, good day.

Hello!

As far as I know, I don't think we can share imported content from outside sources.
