  1. Microphone on/off shortcut not working in Gamebar


    Exactly what the title says friends, all my other shortcuts work just fine except for the microphone on/off, I've tried every fix I can think of, I've reset the app, made sure it was updated. Deleted the reg entries and let them repopulate on their own and I'm still stumped. No matter what I can't turn my mic on/off with a shortcut I have to manually open the overlay and mute my mic in Party.

    Anybody had this problem and know of a fix?

    How do I hotkey mute my mic in the xbox companion app?

    this does not work on gamebar either. Maybe it's a bug. Just not working. I see the option in shortcuts, but doesn't work.

    Gamebar accesing microphone even though it does NOT have permission

    Hello benblender,



    Greetings!



    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



    It seems that that you're experiencing issues with Gamebar accessing your microphone without permission. Let us help you get to the bottom of this.

    If you have already disabled Gamebar's access to your microphone and it is still accessing your microphone, you can try resetting the Gamebar app. To do this, follow these steps:

    1. Press the Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.

    2. Type "ms-settings:gaming-gamebar" and press Enter.

    3. Scroll down to the "Reset" section and click on the "Reset" button.

    If the issue still persists, we can stop the Gamebar from recording the background audio. You can go to Settings > Gaming > Game DVR and turn off the toggle switch under Record in the background.

    We look forward to your response. Kindly let us know, if there is any misunderstanding or clarifications of our description by sending us a reply.



    Sincerely,

    Sort of like a Recently Played list? It's not a bad idea, and you should post it over
    on the Xbox Feedback website! I don't think that I personally would use it. I think they are designing the dashboard to be a get, do what you need, and get out sort of function. And
    I think adding too many things could easily clutter it up, though they do pack a lot on the screen logically with the updated Game Bar stuff.

    I also asked if they plan on opening an API to allow developers to create their own "widgets" like Spotify add in to it, and they said they have discussed it, and considered it, with no plans to implement now, but definitely not ruled out for future update.
