    Xbox game bar isn't opening


    So I've had my computer for awhile now and when I first got it Xbox game bar would open. I recently updated it to Windows 11 and now when I click the Windows key + G it won't open. I've tried doing things that other people have said online to make it work but nothing has helped, any ideas?

    :)

    Xbox game bar isn't opening

    HI Oliver,

    Thanks for reaching out to the forums! Before we recommend uninstalling and reinstalling the game bar. Have you cleared all keyboard shortcuts from the Game Bar app already? To access the shortcut list, open the Start Menu and open Game Bar> then settings> then "Shortcuts". If you have anything in the "Open Game Bar" box other that Windows +G go ahead and either change it to your desired shortcut or scroll to the bottom and click "Reset if you prefer the default settings.

    Hi Oliver,

    Thanks for your reply! Have you already uninstalled and reinstalled the Game Bar from the Microsoft Store?

    [PC] Xbox Game bar push to talk not working in background

    Hello, did you try checking the Game bar's Settings? It might be the case that the Game bar Record game clips and screenshots setting is switched off. Then the Game bar isn't going to open when you press its hotkey. So you can check that option as
    follows. Open the Xbox app by clicking its Start menu tile.

    Both XBOX botton and "A" botton can open Xbox game bar on windows 10

    Open Game Bar then press Settings (the Gear icon) then shortcuts then remove the A button from the shortcut list.

    If that isn't the issue.

    Go to Start < Xbox Game Bar < [Right click] < More < App Settings < Reset
