How Do I Test the Razer Cortex Beta for Xbox Game Bar Widget?


Step 1 >> GET THE WIDGET from the Microsoft Store

Step 2 >> DOWNLOAD CORTEX BETA

Step 3 >> Launch the Widget from the Xbox Game Bar (Win+G by default. You won't be able to launch it from the Start Menu or anywhere else).

NOTE: This feature is only available on Windows 10 64-bit with the latest Xbox Game Bar (v5.120.4062.0). Before using this feature, make sure that your system is up-to-date. You can get the latest version of Windows 10 here: Get the latest version.

If you’ve already installed an old version of Razer Cortex, then you can skip Step 2 above, just launch the Widget and it will let you update your Razer Cortex to the current version. Simply follow and complete the upgrade instructions.

Yes of Course

Yes. It syncs with Cortex PC. It is a widget that runs some of the Cortex PC processes without needing to have Cortex PC in the foreground. But Cortex PC must be installed on the device for it to work. So it is the same Paid to Play earning silver. Not like Cortex Mobile which is a different app so the Paid to Play earning is separate in mobile.

Hmmmmmmmm

Will steam bar / other gaming vendors be included in the future?

So essentially this syncs with Cortex PC? Or is it a separate app like how Cortex Mobile is separate?

I guess my question is does scoring Silver on Xbox = same account as Cortex PC, or is it additional Silver?

how do I post something?
Pretty cool °o°
ok, this is cpoooool
what about Nintendo Switch?
