xbox game bar doesn't refresh after sleep

It goes to sleep/turns off after X mins. But it doesn't turn on...

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues with your gamebar.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Please check game bar settings. Make sure that the Game Bar is enabled. Go to Settings > Gaming > Xbox Game Bar and toggle it on.

And then repair or reset the app. To do this, open Settings > Apps > Installed Apps. Find Xbox Game Bar, click on it, and select "Advanced Options."

Choose "Repair" first. If that doesn't work, select "Reset."

Next is to update Windows. Please ensure that your Windows is up-to-date. Go to Settings > Windows Update and check for updates.

Then uninstall and then reinstall Xbox Game Bar by opening PowerShell as an administrator.

Run the command: Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay* | Remove-AppxPackage.

Reinstall it from the Microsoft Store.

After that is to ensure that your internet connection is stable. If there is a need to restart your router to refresh your network connection, please do it.

Kindly close unnecessary apps running in the background that might interfere with Game Bar.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Yes but whenever I do there is no progress bar and even after waiting for over an hour the game doesn't finish downloading

Try disabling and re-enabling game DVR and check if the issue persists. You need to also make sure the date and time are set automatically on the computer since that could cause issues with the game bar.

2 click on windows search bar and look up Xbox game bar> right click it to open up app settings > first click on Terminate > after that click on repair button > after that check if the issues persists.

If nothing works on the above settings, go to Game bar menu, and make sure that your input and output devices are selected accordingly. After that look up Xbox game bar> right click it to open up app settings > click on reset.

a quick boot to your PC would also help refresh the system, so would also recommend going over the steps mentioned here once finished with the previously mentioned steps: How to perform a clean boot in Windows (microsoft.com)

Hello again, although you've updated the Game Bar, check for optional updates to the 22H2 version of your system.
