Xbox chat on PC no longer connects (game bar or xbox app)

Hi all, This has only started happening recently, When i join or invite people to an xbox partynusing the game bar or within the xbox app (windows 11).

This has previously worked, i have tried reinstalling the xbox app, this has not changed anything. My current work around is to use xbox cloud in the web browser and do chats that way.

Is there a way to fix the apps?

Xbox Recording Issues - Current Status. Are any insiders still having problems?

Some of you may know me from reporting various recording errors for a long time.
From April to October I was unable to record properly, but since the first Beta updates in October I have been regularly recording 1 hour videos in 4K on the Xbox console.
Since then I have had virtually no major bugs that have caused me to miss videos.

Even so, I have taken precautions to disable the console's sleep mode and usually turn it off and on before recording videos, sometimes recording 3 consecutive hours generating several videos.

I previously left documentation in this thread
https://www.reddit.com/r/xboxinsiders/comments/1fkk1rq/community_faq_experiences_with_recording_on_xbox/

So now I would like to ask you, are any of you still having problems? Which ring are you in? In principle it is solved in Beta, but I don't know if it has been solved in Omega or Delta. If you still have problems, either totally or partially, it would be good to talk about it to try to leave a record to the development team and to give other users an overview of the issue.

And if you have problems, I will personally try to help you diagnose them and try to create ideal recording situations to diagnose them :).

Xbox Requests: Week of November 8th, 2024

Xbox Requests: Capturing all your ideas, across all of Xbox, every week!

From PC gaming to Xbox consoles, and everything in between, if you have an idea or feature request that you want to share with Team Xbox, you've come to the right place! Add your requests below, upvote your favorites, and discuss and help refine the ideas of others here all week long.

Tips:

  • We want your ideas for PC gaming just as much as we look forward to hearing your ideas regarding consoles, cloud gaming, mobile devices, TV's, VR, peripherals, and anything else you might think of; if you have an idea for Xbox, we want to hear it!
  • Join your voices together! Try searching for others who have posted the same idea first and upvote theirs instead of posting your own, then feel free to respond to their comment to discuss or refine the idea further.

Rules:

  • Requests for additions to backward compatible titles are subject to removal as the program ended in 2021 per the announcement here.
  • If you have multiple ideas, be sure to post them individually rather than grouping them all into a single post.
  • Please remember to keep the discussion civil and on topic! If you need a refresher, check the Subreddit Rules.

Be sure to check out the Xbox Insider Program Community Update November 2023 to learn more about what we're up to and what the future might look like!

Note: We've received a few questions about this recently, so we want to communicate it here as well. These threads are meant to be a way for the Xbox Insider Community to express their ideas and showcase what features are important to them. However, it is not an exclusive list of work items for the various engineering teams. This means there is no guarantee of implementation for any feature that is upvoted in these threads. The Xbox Insider Team communicates the feedback to the other teams that would be responsible for implementing them, but this is just one lever those teams might utilize to make a decision about where resources are applied. This is not meant to discourage voicing your opinion. We are striving to be more transparent with our processes, and want to reset expectations surrounding Feedback Fridays. Thanks so much for everyone that continues to participate!

While you can also find the top requests from all previous weeks in the Xbox Requests Recap, here are the top three Xbox Requests from last week:

Xbox Series X WiFi vs Wired Speeds

I'm on beta. I have 1gb DL and 400mb UP with my internet provider. On wired my Series X hits approximately 920mb DL and 350mb UP.

On WiFi however it hits only 200mb DL and 130mb UP. 100% wireless strength with IPV 4 & IPV 6 and 5GHz full bars. I tried enabling QOS tagging settings, no difference.

My girlfriends PC hits 900mb Dl and 400mb UP on WiFI and even my iPhone 6s hits 500mb DL speeds...

Can anyone help me figure what is happening with Series X WiFi speeds? Any similar experience?

XBX Beta Ring - Lost all remembered wireless networks

Model: Xbox Series X
Insider Ring: Beta
OS Version: 10.0.26100.2864 (xb_flt_2411ge.241028-2200)

Turned on my Xbox as usual tonight but it didn't connect to my wireless. When I went to reconnect, it said that I have no remembered wireless networks saved. Never had this issue before.

Anyone else experienced this? I usually switch between wireless for casual gaming and wired for when I'm in a party and never had an issue with switching between the two.

Any answers or time frame for when?

Does anyone have any idea why Off The Grid isn’t available on Xbox Insider anymore? Or does anyone know anything about when it’ll be back? I have a series x and live in a region that the game is available in.

Is the icon for Weekly Pulse supposed to be invisible?

It's been quite few days since the "Weekly Pulse" shows with a invisible icon on Xbox Insider app on my Xbox Series S, and that quite got me slightly concerned.

A few questions about the program before I set my console up for Insider.

Are updates ever forced like they were years ago? Or can I set my console to manual updating only for Insider/preview?

I'd like to be able to update when preview updates are available within the allotted time windows. However I'd prefer to not have my game sessions interrupted by forced updates.

Is there a usual time these updates are automatic? Any help on clarification is appreciated. I had a look through the FAQ and threads but couldn't find a current post about automatic vs. manual system updates. Thank you.

Insiders beta update failed to the Beta version 241014

My update to the 241014 BETA flt file failed and now my console is not working, I need to perform the offline update with the OSU1 file.

Please help me out to get the update file.

This is the version my Xbox registered:

26100.2491.amd64fre.xb_flt_2410ge.241014-2200

Any help would be greatly appreciated, the regular support wasn’t able to help and the OSU1 file on the MS Website is older than the one I need.
