Question about windows 10 game mode & game bar.

So I know that there are certain whitelisted games that work with game mode, and that you can enable it in non whitelisted games with the game bar, but does it automatically turn on if the game is whitelisted? If I launch Overwatch, do I need to enable game
mode in the game bar or is it already on?

:)

Hi there Valeria,

Thanks for reaching out! I'm sorry to hear about the current issue with the Game Bar for Windows 10. I recommend to try the following resources:

Hope this helps. Let us know.

 

Win + G and win + ALT + R for game captures are not working in some games?

Hello!

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention. The Windows logo key + G on a Windows 10 PC will open the game bar. Is the game bar not showing up on the screen when those buttons are pressed? The article entitled

Use Game Bar to Record Game Clips on Windows 10 will explain more about using the game bar. We recommend reviewing the article entitled

Troubleshoot Game Bar on Windows 10 if the game bar does not appear when the command is entered. Be sure to let us know the results!

 

Hey there LIZARDUNKO,

If the game is supported, you'll be able to use it automatically. I'm not sure if that answered your question or not. Let me know!

So if the game is whitelisted, like Forza Horizon 3, I wont need to enable it in the game bar as long as game mode is on in the settings?

 

That's correct, if you run into any issues though,
this guide can help troubleshoot.
