    Xbox game bar no longer works


    Within the last few days Xbox game bar no longer works properly. I can open it with Win "G"; however, it doesn't display my friends list or even have a sign in option anymore. it lets me use widget's related to system status, recording, and audio.

    I have tried numerous diagnostic checks and i've noticed that in system apps gaming services and Xbox game bar are not listed.

    Additionally, I've used PowerShell to uninstall game bar and then reinstall it, reset and repaired it, uninstalled gaming services and used PowerShell to launch gaming services through the Microsoft store but anytime i download in the store it gives me an error of "something happened on our end". I reset and cleared the cache for Microsoft store as well but im now clueless with what fix would solve this!

    :)

    Xbox game bar not opening.

    Hello Neutral,

    Thank you for posting here on the Xbox forums. We understand that the Windows Game bar is no longer functioning for you, even after enabling it in the settings. We recommend going through the troubleshooting on this support article: Troubleshoot
    Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10


    Let us know if this helps! We recommend starting off with solution 3 "What should i do if my Game bar and my shortcuts are not working."

    Summer update broke Media Remote control

    I'm having the same problem. Tried 2 different sound bars. No longer works with Sony Soundbar or Samsung Soundbar.

    cannot connect through game bar to sea of thieves via windows 11

    Xbox and windows support both were unable to help.

    I have now info that this doesn't work on two separate windows 11 fresh devices.

    I can invite people. They can't join on me. I can't join on them. I can't accept their invites.

    This appears to be a bug in game bar or something with the file type no longer supported but trying to be called by the link. Please communicate to the game bar dev team.

    LFG Crashing when I try to post

    Hi Team,

    When I try to post on LFG using the XBox Game Bar, the game bar crashes.

    But if I join other people's LFG, it works fine without crashing.

    Help would be appreciated.
    Update: I reinstalled the Xbox Game Bar (using
    this article
    ) and now it works! Thanks for all the help!
