Restore automatic clip upload from Xbox Game Bar on Windows 11 to Xbox Live

Hello SplendidHowl,



Greetings!



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.



I understand your frustration with the removal of the automatic clip upload feature from Xbox Game Bar on Windows 11. However, I would like to inform you that Microsoft is aware of this issue and is currently working on a solution to restore this functionality. In the meantime, you can manually upload your clips to Xbox Live by selecting the clip you want to upload and clicking on the "Share" button. From there, you can choose to upload the clip to Xbox Live and share it with your friends. You may check this link: Share game clips and screenshots | Xbox Support

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Sincerely,

Hi Gary,

Do you take these clips on an Xbox One console or using the Game Bar on Windows 10 when recording your game clips?

Usually clips are uploaded automatically to Xbox Live once you take the clip but if it's not uploading go ahead and

restart your PC with a clean boot and start up just the Xbox App. Try to upload the clip again after the clean boot.

Make sure that the Xbox App is up to date by checking through the Microsoft Store and if that doesn't help look for the Xbox beta app and try uploading it through there.

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.

xbox companion app is a legacy app from early windows 10, they are moving things over to the xbox app and the companion app will be discontinued eventually. you don't really have any reason to use the companion app now, which is why it does not come preinstalled on windows 11. game clips uploaded to xbox live should be visible from the gamebar.

No, you can only upload content from your Xbox or clips captured with the Xbox Game Bar on PC.
