    Windows Game Bar Missing Several Features


    I just recently installed a fresh copy windows from a USB flash drive (created by the Microsoft Creation Tool). After installing everything I entered a few games and pressed Win+G to open windows
    game bar and I now have a super simplified version of it which is missing half of the features including the FPS Counter which is what I was going to use. I am on Windows 10 Pro Version 20H2 (OS Build 1904.746). I have run windows update several times and
    I no longer have any new updates pending. How do I unlock the remaining portion of Game Bar? Also I tried to post a screenshot which shows me logged into my Microsoft account with winver and the Game Bar open but it will not upload to this post for whatever
    reason.

    Thanks

    :)

    Problem Solved - I opened the Windows Store and checked the updates. The Game Bar itself had a pending update along with 37 other apps. After updating everything and restarting Game Bar opened with all of its features.

    Is your account signed in? It doesn't look like it on that picture. Did you at anytime close any of the sub windows by clicking on the X at the top right? I just tried mine and it is all correct I closed out one window, shut it down and restarted the
    game bar, that window did not come back by default as I had closed it.

    What are the two lines on the left? That's where my settings icon is so have you possibly customized this and now it isn't displaying data you possibly customized out?

    With the new update a lot of things changed, I recommend that you enter to see the information of the update 1903

    I can confirm I am running 1903 and the features are NOT there.

    After another update (to the 1903 build) the overlay is now showing as intended. Issue resolved, thread can be closed.

    Thanks guys.
