    Xbox Game Bar doesn't show FPS

    Xbox Game Bar not displaying FPS information despite trying various troubleshooting steps. While the Xbox Game Bar is designed to work on Windows 10 Home as well, it's possible that certain settings or configurations are causing the issue. Here are some additional steps you can try:

    Check Game Bar Settings:

    • Open the Xbox Game Bar by pressing Win + G.
    • Click on the settings (gear) icon in the Game Bar overlay.
    • Ensure that the "Performance" overlay is enabled. You can toggle it on here.
    Check Graphics Card Compatibility:

    • Make sure that your graphics card is compatible with the Xbox Game Bar's performance overlay features. Check the manufacturer's documentation for compatibility information.
    Create a New Local User Account:

    • Since you mentioned that you don't have the "Local Users and Groups" feature available on Windows 10 Home, you can try creating a new local user account and see if the Game Bar functions properly there.
    Use Registry Editor (Advanced, proceed with caution):

    • Press Win + R, type "regedit," and press Enter to open the Registry Editor.
    • Navigate to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameDVR
    • Look for a key called AppCaptureEnabled. If it's not present or set to 0, it might be causing the issue. Set it to 1.

    Windows 11 - Xbox Controller doesn't open game bar

    You can open the Xbox Game Bar on Windows 10 using a controller by following these steps:

    Connect your controller to your PC via USB cable or Bluetooth connection.

    Press the Xbox button on your controller to open the Xbox app.

    Once the Xbox app is open, press the Xbox button again to open the Guide.

    Scroll down to the "Capture & share" option, which should be located near the bottom of the Guide.

    Press the A button on your controller to select "Capture & share".

    In the "Capture & share" menu, you should see an option for "Xbox Game Bar". Use the D-pad on your controller to highlight "Xbox Game Bar" and then press the A button to select it.

    The Xbox Game Bar should now open on your screen.

    Note that some controllers may have slightly different button mappings or may require different steps to open the Xbox Game Bar. Additionally, the Xbox Game Bar may not be available on all versions of Windows 10 or on all PCs, depending on hardware limitations.
