  1. I can't play a game and the directory does not look right


    I am on vacation for the next ten days and while I'm not doing anything, I'd like to be entertained by playing games on my new laptop that bought and received prior before leaving for vacation. However, one of the games that I would like to play isn't acting right. After uninstalling and reinstalling Battlestations: Pacific to get it to work with Games for Windows Live, I'm now at a problem in which I can't play the game because of "missing file privileges" and the game appears to not have installed correctly as there's no game .exe or any other files even though I waited about 15 or so minutes for the game to install from steam (what was going on while all that was happening?).

    I never had this problem with any game before and I don't know how to solve it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

    :)

  2. Update for resident evil 4 not working

    I can't update resident evil 4 on my xbox1. It keeps giving me error code 0x8b050069 and when I look up the code it tells me it doesn't exist but it obviously does since I'm getting it all I want in life right now is to play this game. Someone please help.

  3. Does the Game DVR record the Mic?

    I did a nice a recording of a sweet game i played on Dota 2. Game recording quality was awesome and didn't skip a beat in game! No slowness or lag. I didn't get any game audio though. That was really strange. I would also like a Record Microphone option.

    I did find a way to change the directory because i didn't want gigs of videos eating up my SSD. All i did was right click on the videos folder in your user folder and click on location then change the location to

    (your drive letter you want):\videos

    You then can also change the default location drive for future captures/screenshots ...etc see link below.

    Change default Game DVR folder settings (Build 10122) • r/Windows10

    Overall having native game/screen recording is a major + in my book!
