Game Mode non Xbox games

Hi Lucille,

The Game Mode feature in Windows 10 will help improve the performance for both Win32 games (typically Steam Games) and UWP games (Universal Windows Platform games). If Game Mode is enabled on your computer, make gaming as your computer's priority so you
get the best game quality and performance.

Some games may have Game Mode turned on automatically. If the game is already running Game Mode, the check box will already be selected. Once Game Mode is on, it will continue to run on your computer even if you are playing a non-Xbox game.

You'll just need to open the Game bar if you want to record your game or take a screenshot while playing.
