    Xbox game bar doesn't work.


    When I activate the Xbox game bar from the settings it doesn't save as activated.

    Example: I activate it and then leave the settings app and when I check it it's deactivated.

    Can I activate it with PowerShell or cmd?

    :)

    Xbox game bar doesn't work.

    Thank you. Here are some steps that may solve this problem for you:

    1. Type in "registry editor" in windows search bar, right click and run as administrator.

    2. We are going to check HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\ (copy and paste)

    Choose "GameDVR" from the right panel and change "AllowGameDVR" to 1.

    If there isn't one:

    Right click the empty area, choose "New" and then "Key"

    Name it to GameDVR. It makes a new key / "folder".

    Inside the GameDVR key, right click the empty area again, click "New" and choose "DWORD".

    Name it to "AllowGameDVR". Double click it and set it to 1.

    3. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\GameConfigStore (copy and paste)
    Double click "GameDVR_Enabled" and change it to 1.

    4. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameDVR

    Double click on AppCaptureEnabled and set it to 1.
