Windows 10 has a built-in screen recording tool which is a sigh of relief for many users around the world who want to record their screen activity without using third party software. Using a built-in tool has its advantage, the main one is that you don't have a single concern in mind that you are carrying an adware or malware just because you have installed unknown software from the Internet, which you are skeptical of. Windows should present itself and empower users, with more useful tools that users need and around which a huge, twisted market has floated. Therefore, Windows 10 has taken the initiative to provide a basic screen recording utility for free for Windows 10 users. Although its basic use is for recording xbox games, you can use it for any purpose while recording your PC screen.
