Properly uninstalling xbox gamebar and resolve ms-gaming-overlay-link popup on windows 11
# To uninstall it open a powershell as administrator and uninstall it with the following command:
Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.XboxGamingOverlay | Remove-AppxPackage
reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\GameDVR /f /t REG_DWORD /v "AppCaptureEnabled" /d 0
reg add HKEY_CURRENT_USER\System\GameConfigStore /f /t REG_DWORD /v "GameDVR_Enabled" /d 0
# This disables the game recorder software which seems to still think that the gaming overlay is still present.

I didn't know about this method before. I read about another method in some article and I always used it before. But in any case, I have already stopped playing games. Lately on https://www.creepypasta.com/horror-at-horseshoe-unveiling-true-scary-stories-from-terrified-visitors/ I read about scary games, casinos and much more. I haven't had an Xbox GameBar for over a year. I just took and abruptly deleted all applications, including Steam and stopped playing.
