Hi Funkymonke1243568789! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

You can delete your captures directly on the path where the clips are saved, that would be the best option, you could also try this

Complete given below directions to reset the app in Windows

Step 1: Open the Settings app. This can be done by clicking its icon in the Start menu or simultaneously pressing Windows logo + I.

Step 2: Click the Apps category icon and then click Apps & features to see all installed apps as well as classic desktop programs.

Step 3: Click on the app that you want to reset to see the Advanced options link. Click on the same (advanced options link).

Step 4: Finally, click the small Reset button. When you click the Reset button, you will find a small dialog box with “This will permanently delete the app’s data on this device, including your preferences and sign-in details.” Click the Reset button in the opened dialog box to reset the app.

You're on Windows 10 and trying to use the Game Bar to capture content from your Java IDE? The game bar, I think, has to have the app set as a game.

Not sure, but I'd check this page to see if you can set it. I think there are some restrictions as to what Game Bar will capture, and I'm not sure your IDE will be allowed to be captured.

I could be wrong on those limitations, I can't find any documentation, but I remember reading that there were some restrictions.

Been having the same problem for just as long. This is definitely some kind of Windows 11 and Xbox game bar issue. Audio is perfect in every other app but the game bar.

The game bar captures do not automatically upload to the Xbox Network, so cannot be viewed on the mobile app. You can view them in your videos directory though on Windows 10/11.

Yes, I did start by capturing gameplay to ..\Videos\Captures. After, I looked online about how I could change the location of the default capture to a place I felt was suited for it (my external HDD). So I followed steps I found on the Microsoft troubleshoot
pages and It worked. Everything was fine until for some reason, I changed the USB connection for my HDD on my hardware and the path to the "original capture folder" didn't followed the drive letter now assigned to the HDD (which passed from F: to G: ; and
now F: is my Dvd/Cd, removable drive **for some reason**).

Now, I managed to record a video from the Game Bar on Window 10, and upon stopping it, it told me it was saved in C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp and I checked: it was. It is named "Settings 2018-11-06 5_05_24 PM" if it can help you with anything.
I tried a screen shot by the same process. It works.
