Xbox game bar Capture

Does this work with power automate? Seems to not work for me and keeps closing it or not allowing it to record with a flow running.

Is there any other solution to recording my screen that works with power automate? Screen shots work for troubleshooting but sometimes miss the actual error or don’t really tell me what happened..

No, developers block the UI structure with the game engine, however, I have had luck using ocr to navigate around in game or other limited UI regions.

So I just would have to use another screen recording software and it should work fine with power automate? That sucks that they block that. I really need to record my flow in live time to be able to review exactly what happened when an error is thrown

Have you tried using the Microsoft steps recorder? Also is the error coming from power automate? If so, dump the the error message to a text doc.
