  It might as well be. It’s a Windows app made by Microsoft specifically for Windows and comes preinstalled. IIRC, you can’t even fully uninstall the xbox bits without powershell or regedit.

    Uninstalling the 3 or so Xbox apps was the first reason for me to work with powershell.

    Only the shortcut to the app was preinstalled on the build I put together a couple of months ago. When I tried to open it, it had to download and install first. Also, if you press Win+G to open the Game Bar and click the settings gear, under Notifications you can select “Hide notifications when I’m playing a fullscreen game”.
