Windows Capture Problem

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 FelixIvn

Besides the update to Windows 11, did you remember installing something else?

If not, may I know if you tried repairing and resetting the game bar?

Go to windows settings > apps > search for game bar app > click on it and select advanced options.

After that, click repair and then reset

Then, try again.

**If maybe the issue persists, try temporarily using your PC at 60Hz and check how it goes

If maybe the issue persists try reinstalling the game bar via powershell command:

Right-click on the Start button and select Windows PowerShell (Admin) from the pop-up menu.

Copy and paste the following command in PowerShell and hit Enter to uninstall the Game Bar from your system.

Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay | Remove-AppxPackage

Now head over to Microsoft Store and search for Xbox Game Bar, install it and give it a new try

If maybe that doesn't work please delete the registry keys associated with the game bar :

Press Windows key+R then type regedit and press Enter.

Go to this path (expand the folders using the little ">")

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameDVR

Once there delete all the keys except (Default), restart your PC and try again

Hi Gmjones97.

How are you?

So, I have the same problem.

I have bought an External Storage to salve my games, captures and video captures. Also, I use the Windows Xbox App to download these captures and put on my computer.

To get it from your computer go do Windows Xbox App >> Captures >> Xbox Live

I hope this helps you out.

Best regards.

Hi MEDG429,

Have you checked your capture settings. Adjust capture settings on Windows 10

uh... no im having problems with the fact its not available on Windows 11 at all, and its the only reliable way to transfer captures between a console and PC

and my issue is that since my computer is now windows 11 i have no reliable way to transfer my captures from my Xbox to my PC

btw the answer is related to windows game bar right? when i press windows key + G in capture area all buttons r grey excepts mic button that is the problem.
