Background permissions Win11 23H2 gone for Xbox game bar

Hello, I am a Microsoft user like you, try to help you solve this problem together!

The problem is that Xbox can no longer run in the background.

There is no Enable/Disable background permission in the installed application, possibly because the system file is corrupted or disabled

It is recommended to try the following troubleshooting:

1. Confirm whether it is an administrator user login

2. System file check and repair:

Press the win key, enter CMD in the search bar, select the best match, right-click the administrator mode "→ Enter: (Note the space, enter the command one by one and confirm)

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

DISm /Online /Cleanup-image /RestoreHealth

SFC /SCANNOW

(File repair in safe mode may be required)

Restart your computer when finished

3. Group Policy Enable background application permissions (not applicable to Windows 11 Home Edition)

Step 1: Press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box. Type gpedit.msc and press Enter.

Step 2: In the Group Policy window, use the left pane to navigate to the following folders.

Computer Configuration》Administrative Templates》Windows Components》App Privacy

Step 3: Double-click the "Let Windows Applications Run in the Background" policy in the right pane.

Step 4: Select Enable and use the drop-down menu under Options to select "User in Control". Then, click Apply and click OK.

Restart your computer and see if you can find the Background app permissions option in the Settings app to give Xbox programs background permissions

Background permissions Win11 23H2 gone for Xbox game bar

I compared settings of a friend using Xbox game bar on Win11 22H2 and they have a section that allows them to enable/disable background permissions in Settings/Apps/Apps/Installed Apps and then under the advanced setting for XBOX he can see the background settings options.. The directions I have found online all say to go to Settings/Apps/Apps and Features and that is also not an option in Win11 23H2. The biggest problem is that I get an error message stating the background permissions are disabled when I try to join or start an xbox party chat but I have not found a way to change this. The only work around that I have found is to pin the chat over top of the game we are playing but that takes up a small section of the screen. Not a game changer, just an annoyance. For the friends on discord, I'm having zero issues but I need xbox chat for my xbox friends. Please assist, thank you!
