Xbox game bar recording isn't working 0×8232300F

Hi,

The Windows Game Bar recording function isn't a screen recorder, it's limited to recording one game or application at a time. To record the whole screen you'll need a third party application.

Recording using Game bar isn't a given, PC/laptops pre 2015 or without a dedicated graphics card can't record game footage.

I have an older and very bad laptop where I don't have any issue with the Xbox Game bar.
This laptop is the Lenovo Legion Y520. It was for my brother and I was using it to play games, I haven't this issue. But now we added my account on it and removed a lot of his stuff and recording with Xbox Game bar isn't working anymore.

It's a permanent thing. When i bring up the game bar the option to record isn't available as it says I lack the hardware to record for some reason even though I was recording for about a year.

Hello, Dr. A. I'm Arturo, a community user like you, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

Based on the information you provided, I would like to suggest some potential fixes, please test the recording feature performing each one.

A. Open a new PowerShell window as administrator.
Then copy and paste the following command:

Get-AppXPackage | Foreach {Add-AppxPackage -DisableDevelopmentMode -Register "$($_. InstallLocation)\AppXManifest.xml"}

Restart your PC after running the command.

B. Open the Run window (shortcut is Windows key + R), type regedit and hit enter.

Go to the following path:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameDVR

Click the GameDVR folder and delete everything listed there except the file that says “Default”.

Restart the PC and try recording again.

I'll look forward to hearing your comments.

Regards,

Arturo.
