Windows 10 Game Bar now lets you view and share screenshots without leaving your game
Now you don't have to leave your game to view and share screenshots and videos.
Microsoft today is rolling out a small, but incredibly handy update to the Game Bar on Windows 10. Now, you'll be able to review your screenshots and videos that you've taken without having to leave your game, meaning you can jump right back into the action.
Xbox's Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb revealed the update on Twitter, noting that it's beginning to roll out today. All of your captures can be pulled up in a dedicated gallery window, from which you can add text and post them directly to Twitter.
