Screen recording from Microsoft Windows 10

Since Microsoft Windows 10, screen recording has been an integral part of the operating system. Microsoft Windows 10, therefore, offers the option of making a screen recording even without additional installation of video recording software. This function can be used to record a meeting via ProCall Meetings and, for example, to make it available as a screencast or to archive it.

By pressing the key combination [Windows]+[G] you can open the game bar Xbox Gamebar and from here you can start and stop the screen capture under Windows with the key combination [Windows] + [Alt] + [R].

Windows may ask if you want to open the game bar. Specify Yes here, even if it is not a "game".


If an error message appears, please check if the system requirements for the screen recording function are met.

File location for recording

The recording is stored in the set file location. As a rule, the recording can be found via the file explorer under "This PC" – Videos – Recordings
