  1. Game Bar randomly stops recording my microphone


    Hello,I am using the Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10 to record clips of my games, where I always have Microphone recording turned on.However, Game Bar sometimes doesn't record my own microphone, when the mute button shows that it is unmuted and the Audio > Voice window in Game Bar shows that it is picking up my voice. The only way that I can get Game Bar to start recording my voice again is by muting and then unmuting it, either with the shortcut windows + alt + M or by clicking the microphone mute button in the Game Bar menu.The weirdest part is that after startup the issue is always present,

  2. Problems recording microphone with Game bar

    Hi!

    I use Game Bar to record Minecraft videos and I want to record my microphone, of course. BUT I do NOT want to have to hear my microphone in my headphones all the time. But if I go in to the settings of the microphone and turn off "Listen to this device" Game
    Bar ALSO stops listening. So how should I go about for Game Bar to record my microphone but not having to hear it in my headphones?
