Xbox game bar party not working

Sheri RaePopplestone · Aug 19, 2022

Basically when I join a party after a minute the party audio stops working and everybody goes completely silent. The party chat still shows I'm talking, but my friends are not. My friends told me that I leave the party at random even though I'm still in the party when the audio stops working. I repaired game bar, I tried changing my audio setting, I tried to end game bars task with task manager, It's getting annoying and I just want to talk to my friends.

Party chat on Windows/Xbox App still works. An alternative is the Xbox game bar Party.

To bring up the Xbox game bar, Hold the Windows button and Press "G"

From there you will be able to initiate a Party and Much more!

Game Bar and Xbox app conflict withneach other so bad. Once I installed Game Bar i had to remove Xbox App. But in the last two weeks Game Bar is working really bad. It refuses to let me join party chats. I send invites to party chat as well do not work.
I tried to go back to xbox app since i can not tolerate half working software, and now Xbox app half works. No notification comes up at all for Xbox app but Game Bar persists even when i shut it of. I wanted uninstall Game Bar but you cant.

Game Bar is cool and all but not worth it. How do i get rid of it?

Have you checked your gamebar audio settings and made sure your mic is chosen as your input? For example, I chose my headset instead of the default on my laptop.

Hope you're doing great today despite this Sheri

Please answer the following questions to assist you properly:

Are you on Windows 10 or 11?
Is this the first time you use the party chat feature in your PC?
In order to isolate a bit more the issue, could you try the party chat feature using the Xbox mobile app?

In the meantime, let me know what's saying for NAT type:

Open the Xbox Console Companion app (if you don't find it, you can download it from the store) > Settings > Network
