    How to disable "We can't open this ms-gamebar link" pop-up


    There has to be a way to disable this extremely annoying and unnecessary pop-up from a OS that no longer has all of that Xbox and MS Windows bloat. It is stupid that this thing pops up every single time I connect a controller, it is annoying. I tried some powershell commands I found from google, they do not work. "reinstall the xbox app" is not a fix. I do not want the Xbox bloat, I want the notification gone, that is it. Things like this is why more and more people are going to Linux nowadays

  2. Gamebar process problem

    Yeah, Like many people here have commented I have disabled everything in relation to Windows Game mode, gamedvr and gamebar in the settings menu. When that failed to fix the issue, I disabled everything in the registry in relation to game mode, gamedvr and
    gamebar. That stupid gamebar presence process was still there. Then I used powershell to remove the xbox app. Still there. It only started doing this today. Please get rid of this crap and give me back control over what runs on my own computer.

    Thanks.

  3. Gamebar process problem

    Hi,

    The Gamebar Presence Writer is automatically enabled on your computer if you opened the Game bar and play a game. This process allows you to record video clips from your games.

    If you are playing a game and you want to disable the Gamebar Presence Writer, follow the steps below:

    • Click Start, and then type Task Manager in the search box.
    • Select Task Manager.
    • Under Processes, look for Gamebar Presence Writer, and then press the
      End task button.

    To disable Game bar, here are the steps:

    • Launch Xbox app, and then go to Settings

    Gamebar process problem

    This **** runs in the background even if you uninstall Xbox app and have everything turned off it's a consistent pain in the ass that I have to kill the process every time I'm gaming because it eats my framerate when I've never used it or want to use it.
