Windows Game Bar Game Chat

Anonymous-117 · May 6, 2020

So I recently started using Windows game bar on the PC since Geforce Experience kept bugging out on me. Overall the experience is great, however, I am not able to record the in-game chat which I want to do. Discord records my friends voices fine, however
when we go to game chat for any game, it does record the lobby voice. I have been looking through the game bar settings, but I can't seem to get it to work. Any advice or help would be helpful.

P.S. I'm not talking about my own voice.

Hi There,

If I am not mistaken it will not record your friends or other people in the party as they would need to opt in for that. Usually if you start streaming it will ask the people in your party chat if they want to include their voice audio in the stream. I am
assuming this is the same for recordings.

Party chat on Windows/Xbox App still works. An alternative is the Xbox game bar Party.

To bring up the Xbox game bar, Hold the Windows button and Press "G"

From there you will be able to initiate a Party and Much more!

If that doesn't help then Reset Game Bar in Settings > Apps > Apps & Features > Xbox Game bar > Advanced Options.

If that doesn't help then re-register Xbox Game bar from Option 2 here: http://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/3175-apps-re-register-windows-8-10-a.html

And if that doesn't help then uninstall Game Bar in App Settings above, restart PC, reinstall Game Bar from Microsoft Store Settings > My Library.

I hope this helps.
