Store listing erroneously disables Game Bar recording #3365

@zadjii-msft commented on GitHub (Aug 12, 2019):

That's very odd, since I just used the game bar to record the terminal window last week.

If anyone has more information on what might be causing this, I'd welcome a fix.

I wonder if a new version of game bar regressed this? I definitely recall it working.

I see the problem too! In case it is a Game Bar problem, I created a Windows feedback item against Game Bar recording: https://aka.ms/AA5sj9s

Hopefully the uploaded diagnostics will be enough to diagnose the problem.

Game bar thinks Windows Terminal is not a game, but some people want it to be (for recording purposes)

Game Bar can be used perfectly well to record non-games; in older versions, you had to manually tell Game Bar that the app you wanted to record was a game before it would let you record the app, but this is no longer the case for manually started recordings. I used Game Bar to record Notepad just now with no impediments.

So this problem is not merely that Game Bar does not recognize Terminal as a game, but that Game Bar is actively rejecting Terminal as something it can't record.

Does it need to be implicitly allowed? Or does Windows Desktop Extensions need to be included in the codebase? I can't find anything in the code that would disallow it.

Windows::Media::Capture::AppCapture::SetAllowedAsync(allowed);

Per discussion outside this issue thread, it looks like the current version of Terminal in the Store had a defect in its Store app publishing such that Game Bar recording was explicitly forbidden. I'm told this will be corrected in the next Store version of Terminal.

@metathinker If this is a store app metadata issue, should the "Help-Wanted" tag be removed?

@richardszalay, sorry for the confusion on this point - I don't have the ability to change the issue title or tags, or to close or reopen the issue. That is because I don't actually work on the Terminal feature team here at Microsoft and they have restricted those privileges to themselves.

Hence, you'll need to address requests like yours to @microsoft/windows-console-team or @DHowett-MSFT instead. The most I can do is walk down the hall to Dustin's office and nag him in person :)

This is fixed in v0.4.2382.0 but wasn't included in the release notes.
