    Xbox Game Bar keeps crashing on Windows 11


    After Xbox Game Bar updated to version 7.325.5191.0 on June 13 2025, I have been noticing more DCOM errors and crashes on control panel and event viewer. it will crash when I put the laptop into sleep mode and sometimes when I'm using the laptop. I have tried repairing and resetting the app, if I try to reset it it will give DCOM errors every two minutes unless I terminate Game Bar entirely, The only thing that worked was uninstalling Game Bar completely via PowerShell to stop the crashes and errors. The performance widget doesn't really work anymore either as it just stays stuck and not give me info unless I reboot till it crashes again. I barely use Game Bar since I have Steam, Nvidia APP, and MSI Afterburner. But these crashes are starting to get annoying for me. Anyone else have a solution or a quick fix? This all kind of started as well when they tried to forcefully install edge game assist too.

    Windows 11 Xbox Game Bar Crashing

    I decided to just re-install windows as that would be the same as making a new user.

    Oh, I see
    Yes, that also works. But I usually recommend that as the last resource
    Some people aren't willing to do a clean install at the first attempt

    I tried all of those and the only thing that worked was making a new local admin account.
