Do you still need help?
I fixed this for myself when I experienced the same problem
Took me 2 minutes to figure it out
It’s because Xbox Game Bar saves background recordings in the Captures folder
Once you get 50 clips in there
It won’t let you save any more recordings
You have to delete all of your clips from the Captures folder
Then it will work again

Check the Captures folder like I said
Empty it
Make sure the folder is empty
It’s on your OS drive
In videos folder
If the folder has anything inside besides gamebar clips
It breaks and refuses to work
There’s also a weird invisible limit of 50 clips
In case you deleted the Captures folder
Recreate it and it will send clips in there
You have to do it on the OS drive partition, inside user:your Microsoft account’s name:videos
If there isn’t a Captures folder in there, create one
Name it “Captures”
