Record and find a game clip
Press Win+G to open Xbox Game Bar. Press Win+Alt+R to start or stop a recording. Microsoft’s screen-reader guide to recording with Xbox Game Bar describes these shortcuts and says recordings are MP4 files saved in VideosCaptures.
Capture quality is not the same as game resolution
Game Bar’s capture preferences affect the recording workflow; they are not a way to choose any arbitrary output resolution or bitrate. The game’s rendering resolution and graphics settings are separate. For those settings, Windows provides Settings > System > Display > Graphics; some graphics changes require restarting the game. See Microsoft’s guidance on graphics preferences and windowed-game optimizations.

Display processing can also differ from what a capture tool records. Microsoft notes that Game Bar and other capture tools generally capture a window’s contents, which may not include an upscaled image as it appears on screen. Auto SR is a separate feature with device, Windows, game, and resolution requirements—not a Game Bar recording-quality preset. Check Microsoft’s Auto SR documentation for its requirements.

Whether a frame-rate choice is available depends on the controls shown on your Windows 11 device. The official material cited here does not confirm a universal 60-fps option or a custom-resolution setting for Game Bar. A Microsoft Community post reports Standard and High quality choices without a custom-resolution control, but that is user-reported information rather than a definitive specification for every build: Microsoft Community discussion.
