  1. Why are majority of my local captures gone?


    Hey, i recently checked my captures on my xbox series X, and theyre all almost deleted, i only have some from 17 days ago. I was wondering why that would be the case. Its my local storage and i have plenty of space still. I know some clips can be deleted from the network which is why I like knowing they're still stored locally. It genuinely sucks since I had clips with friends, funny moments, etc. I've done nothing that could affect the settings to my xbox, my network captures are still there, my local storage was just affected, all my games and apps havent been messed up either. Just captures

    Why are majority of my local captures gone?

    Hi, I'm Miguel, community expert, I may not be an employee of Xbox, but I see you need some help, I'm Happy to help you.

    I am reading about this type of situation, in many forums I see that they comment that the xbox itself deletes the captures that you have and have not seen in several days, it usually deletes them, and the recommendation is that you make a backup of those videos if you want to keep them permanently .

    This way you can see if they are still available and still make a backup:

    Press the Xbox button to open the guide, then go to Broadcast & capture.

    Select Recent captures > See All.

    Select the list view button on the right to display your captures in a list.

    Select the check box next to the captures you want to upload.

    Select the Upload to OneDrive button to begin uploading.

    Missing captures

    Umm why are all my locally saved captured gone? I don’t usually upload them in the first place so why I did this happen?

    Xbox Game Bar???

    i found none of the gamebar clips are actually saved to the xbox network, they are only saved locally under the captures folder, if no access to the old storage then they are gone for good.

    My captures are gone. Save really should mean save.

    also i had my captures for over a year so thats greater than 90 days. So why now have they gone

    Captures: EVERY capture is missing now from my less than a year old Xbox, except 4 recent screenshots I took a few days ago. Why?

    Hi there! Have you checked that you’re not looking at only your captures store on Xbox Live instead of all your captures stored locally? Eventually you will run out of space on your Live profile for captures, at which point they stop uploading automatically,
    but are still stored locally on your console.

    Hit the guide button and hit right on the d-pad twice to get to “Capture and Share”. Then go down and select “Recent Captures” to open your Capture Management screen. From there the first box in the top left hand corner should allow you to toggle between
    “Xbox Live” and “On This Xbox”. All of your locally stored captures will be under On This Xbox, and if you want to you can remove some of your Xbox Live captures and replace them with new ones that are stored locally.

    Hopefully this helps, cheers!
    I am choosing from the drop down menu tab to see from my console and they are all suddenly gone as I mentioned, except those 4 images I took a couple or so days ago which were also stored my system & exclusively so (not uploaded). The captures I did upload
    to Xbox Live and OneDrive are fine (even the ones well over 100 days ago), it's the one's on my console that are wiped out and as I mentioned, a few of those I had decided to have stored only on my system.

    My Live storage is not the problem, it's my system that they were mysteriously wiped from and on Live it's like as always, still 33 clips with majority under a minute in length if I recall correctly; 22 images and all are done in reduced quality mode (reduced
    quality mode also for those few stored locally on system exclusively too). If it is thought I am wrong, look up my user name on https://gamerdvr.com/gamer// or https://xboxclips.com/ to
    see it's not that I am checking the wrong thing to view on my system.
