Streamlabs OBS cannot find games

AtteSalmi · Nov 12, 2021

Im trying to stream my games with Streamlabs of to Twitch. For some reason it cannot find any game i play through game pass. Even window capture dont work. It shows only black screen. Only way to stream game pass games seems to be monitor capture.

This does not happen in origin, ubisoft thing or in steam. All games are streamabe through those platforms so it must be something to do with game pass platform itself. Is there way to fix this issue?

Hello, My name is Jesse. I'm an Independent Advisor and a member of the Microsoft community and I'd love to assist you today.

Windows Store games currently require extra permissions to be able to capture. If OBS is installed in the default (C:\Program Files (x86)) directory, these will be applied automatically. If you installed OBS to a custom location, you will need to add the ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES security group to the obs-studio folder. Follow these steps:

- Close OBS if it is already open

- Right click on the obs-studio program folder, select properties, then click on the Security tab.

- Under the Groups or user names section, click on Edit...

- Click add, then type in ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES. Select Check Names and it should underline to show it was typed.

- Click OK, then Apply, then OK, and finally OK again.

- Restart OBS and attempt to capture the game again

IT WORKED! I have battled with this issue almost year!

It seemed i already had All application packages, but not all boxes were allowed. I did not have to add it, but instead add more boxes to it.

I will make short tutorial video in finnish how to stream games from game pass. Im not only one with this problem and more this solution spreads, the better.

Thank you again!!

Mixer has removed the broadcasting from the game bar, you can utilize programs such as StreamLabs OBS and XSplit.

Streamlabs, OBS or others that are used when you use a capture device hooked up to a pc. A few easy to go ones are Bebo and Streamlabs OBS. I believe both have pre made overlays that you can use until you can make your own.

Hi there da panduhh,

Thanks for reaching out here in Xbox Forums. I understand there is a question with streaming and game chat. Using a capture card will record everything coming in from the connection to your Streamlabs OBS. I recommend reaching out to

Streamlabs OBS support for more assistance.

Give that a try and let us know the results.
