Windows 10: Windows Game Bar Stopped Recording and Recording is Lost

Hello, I've used gamebar multiple times to record long videos.


Today, I recorded a video for about 1 hour and pressed F11 by accident.

It gave me an error.


I expected the video to still be in my Captures folder but it's not. Is there a way to recover this file?


Thanks.

:)

 

Record and Take Screenshots with Game Bar in Windows 10


Crazzzzzyyyy quick question but can this be used for things other then apps and games. Such as a way to record a program or a browser for helping make tutorials. The way I understand "Snipping Tool" can take screen shots as well as custom cutouts of the screen your on. And the "Steps Recorder" records the steps taken and can also apply notes to the steps. But can the Game Bar record things like a tutorial steps. Like by recording your screen as a video rather then just steps. Like I said above Crazy Question.

 

Hiding New Game Bar when Recording

Hi LeviathanTheEsper,

Normally, You can play your games while recording it in the background. It seems that background recording is not enabled on your computer that's why the Game bar is showing up when playing your games. Let's check if background recording is enabled by performing
the following steps:

1. Press the Windows key, then select the gear icon to access Settings.
2. Go to Gaming.
3. Select Game DVR.
4. Under Background Recording, check if the toggle switch is enabled.

We look forward to your update.

 

recording with game bar

Whenever I try to record a game clip with the game bar, it records a split second of gaming and then automatically stops and saves the clip. Am I doing something wrong?
