You might explore alternative methods to trigger the game bar without relying on "windows + G." Check if your OS or software offers direct shortcut options for launching the game bar. Some applications let you bind a specific key combination or even a single key for quick access. If such tools aren't available, you could consider using third-party utilities that automate command execution based on key presses.

Use autohotkey to create a macro. When the home button is pressed on Xbox 360 or one controller, it triggers the gamebar.

Thanks for your feedback. It’s not clear how you came up with this idea, but I managed to set up a macro for your keyboard. I know you can launch the game bar with the home button on a controller, but sometimes you prefer opening it without using a controller and don’t like the Windows + G shortcut.
