Which version of Gaming Services you have installed?

27.98.5001.0

By any chance, did you join PC Gaming preview through Xbox Insider Hub app?

Many thnx for your time,
have never used this app, all is ok at my side from Day 1 :slight_smile: without XBox app,… At MS-STORE all looking ok to me, hope.

Maybe It can be clear then,

if there is possibility after sim starts, to login on this sim start screen, what sometimes happen. Now no login, only Check for update and very quick synchronize of data, splash,… and after that Accessibility screen. No sim start at all…

It looks like you have beta version of Gaming Services, which means there’s a high chance you joined PC Gaming preview at some point, perhaps without remembering.
Alternatively, someone who has access to your PC might have joined and not mentioned it to you.

No any other person or ghost at my place :wink:

Which version of Game Bar you have installed?

Check via Powershell.

To check the version of Game Bar in Powershell, you can use the following command and paste it into Powershell:

Get-AppxPackage *Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay* | Select-Object PackageFullName

The easiest way to paste it into Powershell is by right-clicking inside the Powershell window.

Again thnx for your time,

but after that command entered, nothing happens, it looks like command successed but no message then in prompt line.

press ENTER

Yes, did it :slight_smile:

but no any message after that. Is it maybe required to eneter some other thing before that command you’ve recommended?

You can also check the version of the Xbox Game Bar directly through the Xbox app. Open the Xbox app, then go to Settings. Once in the settings, click on About, and there you will find the version of the Game Bar.

:slight_smile: ok so again,

as I said, I don’t use XBOX app so hope you understand so you don’t need tell me about some addons for that :wink:

Open Windows Settings. On the left side, click on System Components, then find and click on Game Bar. After that, click on Advanced Options and you’ll find the version number there as well.

Game bar???

I start to have feeling that we are communicating here about different things :wink: No Game bar at my Win components, with Win10 Home…

Look, I have no problems till this morning sim start, also without any XBOX app, Game bar, so I expect the problem isn’t here looks like.
