How to install/uninstall Microsoft Edge Game Assist widget on Windows 11

This guide will show you how to install or uninstall the Microsoft Edge Game Assist widget for Game Bar for your account in Windows 11.

What is Microsoft Edge Game Assist?

Microsoft Edge Game Assist (Preview) is the first in-game browser that delivers a rich, game-centric browsing experience—including access to browser data from PCs and mobile devices.

Game Assist is a special version of Microsoft Edge optimized for PC games that can appear on top of your game in the Game Bar. It recognizes the game and will suggest tips and tutorials for what you're playing. It also shares the same browser data as Edge on PC so the information you care about is always accessible while you play - including your favorites, history, cookies , form fills, and more. This means you don't have to log in to websites again and have easy access to what you care about.

You can even quickly access your favorite services like Discord , Twitch, Spotify , or any other page or website in the sidebar. And, like other Game Bar widgets, you can pin Game Assist above your game so you can consult guides or watch videos while you play.

Game Assist (Preview) is accessed through the Game Bar, a game overlay that lets you use in-game widgets including Xbox Social to connect with friends and track your achievements, Spotify, Teams, and game widgets to capture screenshots and game clips, tweak audio settings, and monitor system performance.

With the Edge Stable 132 release , Game Assist is available without any Insider software or changing the default browser, making it easier to use on your gaming PC.
