Unfortunately, some games suffer from sporadic but severe FPS drops when the bar is enabled. To turn off the game bar, open up regedit and enter a DWORD 32-bit at HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameDVR\AppCaptureEnabled
with value 0
(to re-enable, remove it, or set to value 1
).
