My screen recorder keeps recording my voice, and I don't know how to stop it. I use the Xbox GameBar of Windows. Do you have any ideas?

Actually, you can unplug the microphone connection directly to stop it. In case you are using the microphone for other reasons, I will still provide a step-by-step guide to help you mute the mic when screen recording with the Xbox Game Bar:

🧲Follow the steps below to stop recording microphone sound on Windows:

Step 1. Open "Settings" on your Windows computer. Go to the "Gaming" section.

Step 2. Click "Captures" to set your recording. Find "Capture audio when recording a game" and click on it. If you don't want to record with the microphone, you can drop the "Microphone recording volume" to "zero". 

Afterward, your voice won't be recorded when recording next time. If you find this way difficult to operate, I have another recommendation for you: EaseUS RecExperts. This EaseUS screen recorder has way more functions than just recording screens. You can also use its built-in video editing tool to pre-trim your recorded videos. Besides, it has an AI-powered noise remover to avoid unnecessary voices while recording. Download it with the button below:

🧲See how to use EaseUS RecExperts to record screens without an external microphone:

Step 1. Launch EaseUS RecExperts on your computer first. Choose "Full Screen" or "Region" to decide the area you'd like to record with. 

Step 2. Turn off the "Microphone" option from the main interface if you don't want to record the background noise. 

Step 3. After turning it off, start recording with "Rec" and finish it with "Stop". 

I hope this post has solved your problem.
