windows 10 game bar issue

Rydis · Nov 26, 2015

can't seem to get it to work

Pressing the win g key just makes a sound and doesn't bring up the options. Setting my own shortcut has the same issue.

Doesn't matter if I have a game open or not, the game bar function refuses to work

a lot of games. It should also come up even if you have no games playing. Just on the desktop. Doesn't work. Makes the sound like it does..and just never shows up. And setting my own short cuts for any functions dont work. Get the sound effect but no bar, no recording nothing.

Fallout 4, Skyrim, Path of Exile, Wildstar, Hearthstone, Xcom, Tales of Zestria, Witcher 3, dont stave, etc

Anything like Afterburner, or any media software, maybe antivirus?

yeah afterburner as well. But I dont have it to run when start up, so its been tested with both afterburner running and not.

No antivirus but windows defender. If I need to, ill run spybot/adaware/malewaye bytes.

Check the info here:

Sounds like it won't come up at all in fullscreen no matter what.

yeah i was aware of that issue. But it doesn't work even out of full screen, or even with no game up. And the shortcuts for recording without going through the game bar dont work. You hear the sound it makes when you press the shortcuts, but it doesn't actually do anything.

Ive tried reinstalling windows and I still have the same issue.

I'm assuming Shift+F1 doesn't work either?
