Solution 2. Using XBox Game Bar to Capture Screen on Windows 10

If you are a Xbox gamer and is using Windows 10, you can make full use of Xbox's byproduct, which is Xbox Game Bar to record not only gameplay videos, but also capture the computer screen. Xbox Game Bar is simple to use if you have installed it on your computer. Here is the guide you can follow.

STEP 4. When Xbox Game Bar appears, you make some pre-settings and then click the Record button to start recording computer screen for free.

STEP 5. Click the blue Stop Recording button. Then you can find your videos in the "Videos/Captures" folder. 

Currently, Xbox Game Bar is only available on Windows 10. Therefore, for Mac users, they can't use Xbox Game Bar to record computer screen. As a result, using QuickTime's built-in recorder is more suitable for Mac users.

Solution 3. Using QuickTime to Record Screen with Audio on Mac

QuickTime is Mac's built-in media player that can stream videos/audios on Mac with high quality. QuickTime player has a built-in screen recorder, so actually, you can make full use of this record to capture your computer screen when you need.

These three methods are all workable for record computer screen freely. However, by comparison, RecordAnyVid can be more outstanding, while the latter two are more or less flawed, and have some limitations. You can make your choice according to your own needs.
