yeah, we don't want your dang gamebar. It's useless and we should not have to reinstall it.

Thank you. One million times thank you. It is very disturbing that Microsoft do not provide an option to do this, it's almost enough to make you think they're trying to force their Xbox ecosystem onto all of our systems.

2024-06-25T22:59:02+00:00 Hey, maybe a windows update stopped the reddit solution from working. I already got rid of gamebar. I've ran powershell as an administrator and plugged the the lines for the popup removal part, one at a time and it said complete. Then i restarted my pc, plugged a controller in and i would still get a popup message anyway. I've tried this method like 3 times with no luck. Any ideas on a fix? thanks if possible.
