Recordings from Game Bar show black screen

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that the recordings using the Game Bar shows black screen. However, it would be great if you can reply with the details requested below:

• Were you able to install the drivers?
  
• Were you able to use the recording feature earlier?
  
• Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently? To check type:
  winver in the search bar on the Taskbar and hit
  Enter.
  

If you have updated the graphics driver, I would suggest you to try rolling back the drivers and see if that helps:

1. Press the Windows Logo key + X key, and select
   Device manager.
   
2. In Device manager, expand Display adapters.
   
3. Right click on AMD driver and select
   Properties.
   
4. Navigate to the Driver tab and click on Roll Back Driver.
   
5. Restart the computer.
   

You may also want to check whether the Xbox Game Monitoring service is running or not. Refer the steps mentioned below:

1. Press Windows Logo key + R, to open
   Run dialog box.
   
2. Type services.msc and click on
   OK.
   
3. Scroll down and look for Xbox Game Monitoring, and see if the service is running.
   
4. If the service is not running, right click on the service and select
   Start.
