Xbox Game Bar Connection Issue

Hello Kaiden F.,

Good day! Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

We are sorry to hear that you are having trouble with the Xbox Game Bar party chat. This issue may be caused by a network problem, a microphone setting, or a compatibility issue with your device. No worries, I will do my best to help you sort this out for you to get back to gaming.

Here are some steps you can try to resolve the issue:

1. Reset Xbox Game Bar, Xbox App, and Xbox Live:

• Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & Features > Xbox feature > Advanced Options.
  
• Restart your PC and try again.
  

2. Check Audio Settings: Make sure your headset is set as the default input and output device via the Sound Control Panel.

• You can do this by going to Settings > System > Sound > Input and Output devices. You can also test your microphone using the Voice Recorder app from the Microsoft Store.
  

3. Reinstall the App: If the above steps fail, try uninstalling the app in the same Settings location, restart your PC, then reinstall from the Microsoft Store.

4. Check Privacy Settings: Make sure “Others can communicate with voice, text, or invites” is set to Everyone.

• Go to this link and sign in your adult account: https://account.xbox.com/en-us/Settings
  

5. Check if there are any updates available for your device, the Xbox Game Bar, and the Xbox app.

• Go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and Microsoft Store > Downloads and updates.
  

6. Push-to-Talk: Ensure that you don’t have the push-to-talk feature enabled. To disable it, in the Party widget, select the Party options (…) button, choose Party audio, and then clear the Enable push to talk checkbox.

I hope this helps. If you have any other questions or issues, please let me know. We are always happy to assist you.

Have a great day and happy gaming!

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.
