    Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.
    I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

    Hope you're doing great today despite this Carl

    Please make sure that everything is up to date (usually when you do a clean install, windows need to install extra things to work properly)

    Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update;

    Click Check for Updates;

    Click the Download and Install Now option, if available (Install optional updates as well)

    Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services and update everything too.

    Don't forget to restart the PC once everything is up to date and try again .

    If the issue persists, may i know if you can open the game bar with Windows key + G?

    Hi Again,

    I managed to fix it !!! :) As you said there was an update to do in the MS Store on the app, i had to go in the Library ans i way there was an update for MS Game Bar.

    Now everything is working correctly. Thanks!

    I still have to note that is not very intuitive, the update should have happend automatically.

    Have a great day!

    Hi, I'm glad to hear that indeed you needed to update the game bar and Xbox apps inside the store
    Usually you need to manually check for updates the first time

    Don't hesitate to reach the community forums if you need help in the future
    For now take care and have a good day
