    Choose the path gamebar uses


    I have Sea of Thieves through both Steam and Windows Store. When I receive an XBox gamebar invite, it always tries to load the Steam copy. How do I set the gamebar so that it loads the Windows store copy instead? No, I don't want to uninstall the Steam copy. I want Windows Game Bar to prefer the Windows Store copy path instead of the Steam copy path.

    :)

  2. Gamebar process problem

    Yeah, Like many people here have commented I have disabled everything in relation to Windows Game mode, gamedvr and gamebar in the settings menu. When that failed to fix the issue, I disabled everything in the registry in relation to game mode, gamedvr and
    gamebar. That stupid gamebar presence process was still there. Then I used powershell to remove the xbox app. Still there. It only started doing this today. Please get rid of this crap and give me back control over what runs on my own computer.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    The Gamebar Presence Writer is automatically enabled on your computer if you opened the Game bar and play a game. This process allows you to record video clips from your games.

    If you are playing a game and you want to disable the Gamebar Presence Writer, follow the steps below:

    • Click Start, and then type Task Manager in the search box.
    • Select Task Manager.
    • Under Processes, look for Gamebar Presence Writer, and then press the
      End task button.

    To disable Game bar, here are the steps:

    • Launch Xbox app, and then go to Settings

      .
    • Click Game DVR.
    • Turn off Record game clips and screenshots using Game DVR.

    If you have further queries, feel free to contact us anytime.

    Gamebar process problem

    This **** runs in the background even if you uninstall Xbox app and have everything turned off it's a consistent pain in the ass that I have to kill the process every time I'm gaming because it eats my framerate when I've never used it or want to use it.
