Transfer game clips/ screenshots to usb

Hi,

You will need to download an app on your xbox to acess media of a usb device. This app is called, “Media Player” and is roughly 45.57 MB.

As far as I know, there is no way to stop them from auto-deleting, but you could connect an external hard drive to the console and use that for your screenshots and video clips. When you connect the drive do not format it for games, and make the storage the default for screenshots and game clips, and then you will be able to connect the drive to a PC to watch them or transfer them to another device if you wish.

Hi Bobbie-Lee! I hope you are well, delighted to be able to offer you my help!

I understand that you want to transfer your screenshots to your PC, after a search I found some information that can be of great help to you.

The replacement for the Xbox Console Companion app is the Xbox app on Windows 10. To transfer your screenshots and videos, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Xbox app on your Windows 10 PC.
2. Click the three horizontal lines in the upper left corner of the app to open the menu.
3. Click "Captures" in the menu.
4. Select the screenshot or video you want to transfer.
5. Click the "Download" button to save the file to your PC.

If you are not seeing your screenshots and videos in the Xbox app, you may need to make sure that your Xbox account is linked to your Windows 10 account. You can do this by going to the Xbox app settings and selecting "Accounts" from the menu.
