Xbox game bar and screen record problems

Rose_935 · Aug 9, 2021

I cannot open Xbox game bar even if I click windows and G. I also cannot screen record when playing a game. I have tried changing the shortcuts in settings but that doesn't work. I also tried changing the screen record in my actual computer settings but nothing has work. Please help.

Hi venkatesh pullagura,

If you are referring to recording your screen like gaming content on an Xbox using Windows, you can consider using the built-in Xbox Game Bar.

How are you, Rose_935?

What exactly happens when you press Windows Key + G?

Check that your Windows is up to date on Windows Update and install optional updates as well.

Hi,

The Windows Game Bar recording function isn't a screen recorder, it's limited to recording one game or application at a time. To record the whole screen you'll need a third party application.
