xbox game bar video capture - cannot record

Hello Mabel L. I'm Arturo, a community user like you, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your concern today.

Based on the information you provided, I would like to suggest some potential fixes. Please test the recording after performing each one and skip the ones you already tried.

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

Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay | Remove-AppxPackage

Restart your PC after running the command, open the Microsoft Store and install the game bar from there.

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.

C. Create a new local user on your PC. Then test if you have the same outcome or not.

I'll look forward to hearing from you.

I assume by the 'playback feature' you mean the record time? The Windows Game Bar maximum record time that can be set is 4hrs. This can be changed in Windows Settings > Gaming > Captures.

The Windows Game-Bar uses a video recording codec that requires the file to be finalised in order for it to be saved. This means that either if the recording is stopped via the Game Bar or the recording ends on its own once the maximum time is reached, the file should save. If for some reason there a fault or a system crash, the video recording won't save as it won't complete the 'finalising' process.
