em... My laptop enjoys the same display with yours, 1080p 125%. Even i scale it to 100%, game bar works fine with no black screen issue. But I didn't use it to record gameplay but some other activities... If you can't fix this error, try some other slick

Yes it does! I've recorded up to 25 minutes before. This was the longest time I had recorded though (2 hours) and I have plenty of room for it to save.

Ah this is annoying!

It sounds like there is an issue with the save location of your file.

If you record some short 1-2min footage does the game footage save as expected?

Control panel is essentially the predecessor to the Windows Settings app. It's been included with Windows since 1985, when the first version of Windows was released. While most options can be configured in the Settings app, some are still only accessible from the control panel. It may have opened if you were trying to change a specific setting or if another app caused it to open.

Please reach back if you have further questions.

Thanks,
Kyle
