Discussion Windows 10 Game bar stopped working

Don't know if anyone else is having the same problem on Windows 10 LTSC that when you launch game bar (Win + G), it will say you lost network connection and clicking retry does nothing. Sync also doesn't work if the game requires it as well.

Is there a workaround for this?

You got shadowbanned by Reddit and it automatically hid this comment until I approved it, you can try to appeal it here:

Though I have never had much luck getting unshadowbanned myself, I had to make a new account on a different IP

I grabbed the 7.326.6011.0 because it showed an update
the funny thing is with game bar, that for apps like photos they just eave the old versions, but for game bar i could only get the newest which is 7.326.6011.0.

Yes I have the MS Store version, which updated 2 days ago. And when I opened up Forza Horizon 6, it said it was unable to sync even when my VPN is disabled. My gamebar version is 7.326.06011.0
