DISCLAIMER THIS IS ON THE PC XBOX GAMEBAR

Most upgraded PC's that came from windows 7 are more then likely won't work with gamebar.

are you logged into the steam version of the game with the same xbox account as your pc/gamebar, if so should work normally as it connects to xbox live. i get invites ok same with all the xbox games i own on steam.
