Line 48: ==== Game Bar and Game DVR ==== Windows 10 introduces the Game Bar, which provides screenshot and video capture functionality for Windows games. ~~Users~~When pressing {{Keypress\|Win\|G}}, users can invoke the ~~game~~Game ~~bar~~Bar, record gameplay, or take a screenshot using the appropriate keyboard shortcuts. Windows 10 can also continuously capture gameplays in the background; this allows the user to request that the last few users defined moments of gameplay be saved to the hard disk. This is useful if a user wants to save and/or share a moment of gameplay but did not think to explicitly record it beforehand.<ref>{{Cite web\|url=https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/xbox-on-windows/social/record-game-clips-game-dvr-windows-10\|title=Recording Game Clips {{!}} Game DVR {{!}} Windows 10 Games\|website=support.xbox.com\|access-date=April 2, 2016\|archive-date=December 1, 2017\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171201044219/https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/xbox-on-windows/social/record-game-clips-game-dvr-windows-10\|url-status=dead}}</ref> The Game Bar was later upgraded into a larger overlay, which now features "widgets" windows for functionality such as the user's Xbox friends list, audio settings, and system performance information.<ref>{{Cite web\|last=Warren\|first=Tom\|date=May 22, 2019\|title=Microsoft's new Xbox Game Bar launches for Windows 10 as a useful overlay with widgets\|url=https://www.theverge.com/2019/5/22/18635709/microsoft-xbox-game-bar-windows-10-release\|access-date=June 25, 2021\|website=The Verge\|language=en\|archive-date=June 25, 2021\|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210625152931/https://www.theverge.com/2019/5/22/18635709/microsoft-xbox-game-bar-windows-10-release\|url-status=live}}</ref> Line 82: === Security === [[MAC spoofing\|MAC Address Randomization]] in ~~WiFi~~Wi-Fi has been introduced to try to prevent third parties from using the MAC address to track devices.<ref>{{Cite web \|url=http://papers.mathyvanhoef.com/asiaccs2016.pdf \|title=Archived copy \|access-date=March 14, 2017 \|archive-date=October 8, 2019 \|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191008173216/https://papers.mathyvanhoef.com/asiaccs2016.pdf \|url-status=live }}</ref> == Windows Hello == Line 88: === Recognition === This feature uses IR camera to scan the user's face, similar to Apple's [[Face ID]], users can unlock the computer with it.
