Step 1: Open the Xbox Game Bar
Windows 11 makes screen recording simple with the Xbox Game Bar. To access it, press the "Windows key" and "G" simultaneously. This opens the Xbox Game Bar overlay on your screen.
Step 2: Start Recording
Within the Xbox Game Bar, you'll find a set of widgets. Look for the "Capture" widget, represented by a camera icon. Click on it to open the recording options. Here, you'll find a "Record" button. Clicking this button initiates the screen recording process.
Step 3: Configure Recording Settings
Before you start recording, you can customize your settings by clicking on the gear icon in the Capture widget. This allows you to adjust options such as audio settings, video quality, and the location where your recordings will be saved.
Step 4: Choose Recording Area
Windows 11 offers flexibility in choosing what to record. You can either record your entire screen or select a specific area. Click on the "Select area to record" button and drag to choose the desired recording region.
Step 5: Record Your Screen
Once you've configured your settings and chosen the recording area, click the "Record" button to start capturing your screen. You'll see a small timer indicating the recording duration at the top of your screen.
Step 6: Stop Recording
To stop the recording, click the stop button in the Xbox Game Bar, or you can use the keyboard shortcut "Windows key + Alt + R." Your recording will be automatically saved in the location you specified in the settings.
Step 7: Access Your Recordings
You can find your recorded videos in the "Captures" folder, typically located in the "Videos" library. From here, you can edit, share, or use your recordings as needed.
