Windows Xbox game bar says "enable gaming features for this app to record gameplay" when I try to clip last 30 seconds

I tried to record the last 30 seconds with the Xbox game bar but the message "enable gaming features for this app to record gameplay" appeared, and there was a checkbox next to it that didn't work, I clicked to activate it but it didn't activate, and at the same time in the settings, the "remember this as a game" checkbox wasn't activating either. Strangely, I was able to record in the windows settings tab, but in the chrome and opera browsers I couldn't record.

    Hello Enrico, I'm Johrelle a fellow Windows/Microsoft user. I'm happy to assist you.

    First, make sure that the Game Bar is enabled in the Windows settings. Open Settings > Gaming > Xbox Game Bar. Ensure the toggle for "Enable Xbox Game Bar for things like recording game clips, chatting with friends, and receiving game invites" is turned on.

    If it's turned on, try resetting the Game Bar and check if you can record. Go to Settings > Apps > Apps & features. Find the Xbox Game Bar in the list and click on it. Click on Advanced options. Scroll down and click on Reset.
