Windows 10: Game bar not registering GPU (Laptop)

Hello everyone,


So I was playing some games on my Laptop, and when I opened the game bar it showed the CPU and RAM usage perfectly fine, only the GPU usage was not displayed. When I used the Msi Afterburner overlay the GPU was displayed, so the problem has to be with the gamebar itself and not the graphics card. Does anyone have the same issue? How can I solve the problem? Thanks in advance


P.S.: I'm using the AMD Radeon HD 6650m

:)

 

want to open game bar, but win+G repeatedly asks if "want to open game bar?"

Game Bar update

Hi MatyasSvoboda,

Incorrect configuration setting is one of the possible reasons why you're there's a little window when recording your games. To resolve this concern, I recommend that you turn off your Game bar and restart your computer before turning it on again. To do
this, you may follow the steps below:

How to disable Game bar:

1. Right-click the Start button.
2. Click Settings.
3. Click Gaming.
4. Click Game bar.
5. Click the switch below Record game
   clips. Screenshots, and broadcast using Game bar so that it turns
   Off.

Kindly update us with the results.
