The first time you choose to record screen activity, Game Bar needs your permission. Instead of going through the Game Bar pane next time, you can also just press Win + Alt + R to immediately start your recording. The pane also displays the name of your current app, file, or window as the source for the video capture.Ĭlick the camera icon to take a simple screenshot or click the Start Recording button to capture your screen activity. Several Game Bar widgets pop up with options for capturing screenshots, controlling your video and audio, and viewing your Xbox social account. You can start a recording from most applications and windows, but you can't kick off a capture from the Windows desktop, File Explorer, or certain Windows apps such as Weather. To change any of the keyboard shortcuts, you'll need to go through the settings in the Xbox Game Bar app itself. In Windows 11, go to Settings > Gaming > Xbox Game Bar and enable Open Xbox Game Bar using this button as a controller to use an Xbox gamepad to activate the Game Bar. In Windows 10, go to Settings > Gaming > Xbox Game Bar and turn on the switch for Enable Xbox Game Bar. You can also enable Open Xbox Game Bar using this button on a controller to trigger the Game Bar through the Xbox button on an Xbox controller (or Xbox 360 controller with the right driver).įrom this screen, you can also change any of the default keyboard shortcuts associated with opening the Game Bar, taking a screenshot, and recording a video. As the Xbox app tells you, “this may affect game performance.” System resources will be constantly used for recording while playing games with this setting enabled, so you’ll want to leave it enabled unless you really want to record gameplay or you have a very powerful PC with extra resources to spare.Before you can use this tool, first make sure the feature has been enabled. To use this feature, you’ll need to enable the “Record in the background while I’m playing a game” option under Game DVR Settings in the Xbox app. Game DVR on Windows 10 can function similarly. The Xbox One and PlayStation 4 automatically record your gameplay in the background, allowing you to instantly save interesting gameplay clips after they happen.

By default, audio is saved when you record gameplay - you can tell the Game Bar to not record audio or control the audio quality level from here.
