    Xbox Game Bar for Windows Laptop Acting Strange


    The Xbox game bar for my laptop is acting pretty weird, I think what started it was when my friend and I were playing a game together, and he accidentally hit the Xbox key on his wired controller. which brought up the game bar and I hit some other buttons on my keyboard on accident as I hadn't yet realized the game bar had been pulled up, now it acts strange. None of the buttons work and every time I try to click something it says "Y move widget". After plugging the controller back in it is still buggy but the controller moves the widgets only in the right direction, as well as it's like it ha

    Microphone not working with Xbox game bar

    My son is trying to record his playing on roblox using Xbox game bar. He is using a laptop on windows 10.

    It was working fine a few days ago. Now he is having problems with the microphone. When he brings up the xbox game bar, (windows G), the menu says that the microphone is not working because of privacy settings.

    When I go to the privacy settings for microphone, I gave permission to use the microphone for all the listed apps. But xbox game bar is not one of the listed apps. I also tried "reset" on the xbox game bar which did not help.

    How can I give permission to the xbox game bar to access the microphone?

    Microphone itself is working. I can use it on Cortana.

    Thanks

    HW
