This tutorial will show you how to change the video frame rate for game recording for your account in Windows 11.
The Xbox Game Bar app is built into Windows 11 so you can record games to capture videos and screenshots while playing PC games. You can press the Windows
+ Alt + R keys to toggle the start and stop recording of your game.You can choose to record games using a 30 fps or 60 fps video frame rate.
Higher frame rate generally requires the PC to work harder, which may decrease performance. You can determine the best settings for your system by trying them out.
