How to record your screen in Windows 11


Windows 11 comes with a handy Xbox Game Bar feature that allows you to record a video of your actions in nearly every Windows app on your desktop or laptop. Much like in Windows 10, the screen recording tool comes installed by default, meaning all it takes to start capturing what you’re doing is a few simple steps.

That’s not the only tool the Xbox Game Bar offers, as it allows users to capture the last 30 seconds, take screenshots, adjust audio, turn on their mic while recording, chat with friends, and more. Whether you’re looking to capture gameplay or make a quick tutorial on how to navigate through apps, Here’s how to record your screen in Windows 11. 

How to record your screen in Windows 11

While you can record just about everything using the Xbox Game Bar tool on Windows 11, note that you won’t be able to capture recordings on the Windows desktop or File Explorer. Once you’re in a suitable app, however, you can freely start recording, taking screenshots, and more.

The following method also works on laptops using Windows 10, but for a better look, check out how to record your screen in Windows 10

  • A notification should pop up stating “Game clip recorded.”

There you have it. The video recordings will be saved under the Videos folder in a subfolder labeled Captures, which you can watch back or use for video editing. There are plenty of ways to use the Xbox Game Bar, but Windows 11 also has easy ways to take a screenshot and more.
