Xbox Game Bar Account Settings XBGB - 1.603.10181.0

Hello Hypernion! I'm Claus, an Independent Microsoft Community Consultant for Xbox! Glad to be able to help you!

You would need to disconnect the Steam account from your Xbox profile. To do that, open the Xbox Game Bar, select the Settings (cogwheel) on the top bar. Then, go to Accounts on the left bar of the Settings widget, and select Unlink on the Steam section.

Hello KillerKitten995, My name is David. I am an independent advisor, happy to help you today.

I understand you're having trouble joining groups in the Xbox Game Bar. Here are some things you could try:

Check your account privacy settings: Make sure your account privacy settings allow you to join groups.

Check if there are any sanctions on your account: Although you mentioned that you have already done this, it is important to make sure that there are no sanctions or restrictions on your account.

Check your Xbox Game Bar settings: Make sure your Game Bar settings are set correctly.

Restart the Xbox Game Bar: Sometimes simply restarting the Game Bar can fix the problem.

Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

Best regards.

Thanks for the extra info

Try using your account everywhere (including the Microsoft store) to see if the achievement notification appears

And this can be a bit dumb, but make sure to have notifications enabled for the Xbox game bar via windows settings and game bar settings

Xbox Overlay is really the "Game Bar", and when you press Win+Alt+B it's a shortcut designated in Game Bar to begin broadcasting. So either you can press Windows+G and open the game bar and select Settings from there, and either change the shortcut for
broadcasting, or you can use the settings to link your account to a Mixer account to start broadcasting when you press the button.

More details on the Game Bar for Windows 10 can be found here.

Let us know if you have any other questions!

Hello again and thanks for the commitment to help me through this.

Unfortunately, creating a brand new account and attempting to use Xbox Game Bar (after making sure Xbox and Game Bar itself were installed too) ended up in me getting the very same issue on that option and on top of this, I'm unable to even access the in-Bar Xbox Game Bar Settings through the in-Bar wheel icon.
Elaborating through, I crossed the thought of whether there's any Administrator permission I could attempt to give to Xbox Game Bar through my main Admin account in some way you may know of.. Let me know.
with regards,
