    Xbox Game Bar not showing current playing game on status


    So, I really love Xbox Game Bar and I'm using it since the beggining, but I have some problems that I cannot find how to fix them. When I play some games, the Status on the XGB it just stays as "Online", I've tried it with several different games from Steam (Tomb Raider, Destiny 2, Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice, Hitman, Stardew Valley) and it just doesn't work. It only shows "Online" as status, not the game I'm playing.



    How can I fix that?



    Thanks!

    Does the Xbox Game Bar have an issue?

    I have the same issue with Diablo IV on the xbox game bar. The game was install using battle.net. It appears the xbox game bar recognizes it is a game however, my status only shows online. I believe this is the only game so far that I have encounter this issue. The resources top task in the game bar shows battle.net as high and not Diablo IV, but the task manager shows Diablo IV. Call of Duty was installed using battle.net as well; however, xbox game bar shows the status as playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare.

    Game Bar Party only hears me if xbox game bar is actively open

    You should be able to manually check Xbox game bar, for me it shows game bar and Xbox currently in use

    Xbox Gamebar Status Not showing Game Currently Playing

    Anyway, seems like the issue is on Microsoft side, I'm slowly getting feedback from friends and other people that they started having the same issue over the last week.

    Xbox Gamebar Status Not showing Game Currently Playing

    If games aren't being recognized by Xbox Game Bar, you can add it to the games list. To do so, you'll only need to launch the game, and then
    open Game Bar (Win + G), open Settings > and tick
    "Remember this is a game".

    Hope this helps!
