Xbox Game Bar gives error message..

this is what my new toy (chatGPT) , AI thingy spew out ... "If you're receiving an error message that says "Gaming features aren't available on Windows Desktop or File Explorer" when trying to use Xbox Game Bar on your Windows 10 PC, it may be because your computer is not configured to allow Game Bar to function properly. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve the issue: Check that Game Bar is enabled. To do this, press Windows key + G to open Game Bar. If it is not enabled, you will see a prompt to enable it. Click on "Yes, this is a game" to enable Game Bar. Ensure that you have the latest version of Windows 10. Game Bar requires Windows 10 version 1903 or later to function properly. To check your Windows version, press Windows key + R, type "winver", and press Enter. Verify that your graphics drivers are up to date. Outdated or corrupted graphics drivers can cause issues with Game Bar. You can update your graphics drivers by visiting the website of your graphics card manufacturer (e.g. NVIDIA, AMD, Intel) and downloading the latest drivers. Check your privacy settings. If Game Bar is not able to access the necessary files or folders, it may not function properly. To check your privacy settings, go to Settings > Privacy > App permissions, and ensure that the toggle switch next to "Documents" is set to On. If these steps do not resolve the issue, you may need to perform a clean installation of Windows 10 or contact Microsoft support for further assistance." hope it helps *Wink ps: " perform a clean installation of Windows 10" is a bit over the top , don't listen to the robot lol
