    Game bar resizing based on resolution of games


    Ive fixed the issue in the past but now a friend of mine is having it and I dont remember what I did to fix it, the issue is as simple as if you open a game that doesnt have the right resolution for your screen (we both use tvs) the game bar becomes huge and unusable while that game is open.


    If anyone knows what settings need to be changed so it doesnt do this I would love the help!

    :)

    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.
