Unlike previous versions of Bizhawk that I've used, whenever I record with Windows Game Bar (Windows Key + G, for those wondering), I cannot use the hotkeys or get out of full screen mode unless I exit Bizhawk altogether. Hotkeys and keyboard shortcuts work fine, but once I start recording with Windows Game Bar, they just stop working and stay un-functional unless I exit Bizhawk 2.8 and re-enter it altogether, forcing me to use earlier versions. Really hoping this gets fixed.

This might be because EmuHawk sees that you've pushed the Win key but doesn't see that you've released it, so it only looks for hotkeys with Win in them. I believe the Win key was removed from the modifier keys list after 2.8; could you try a dev build?
I contribute to BizHawk as Linux/cross-platform lead, testing and automation lead, and UI designer. This year, I'm experimenting with streaming BizHawk development on Twitch. nope
Links to find me elsewhere and to some of my side projects are on my personal site. I will respond on Discord faster than to PMs on this site.
Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer. That means I solve problems. Not problems like "What is software," because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy. I solve practical problems. For instance, how am I gonna stop some high-wattage thread-ripping monster of a CPU dead in its tracks? The answer: use code. And if that don't work? Use more code.

Just tried the latest one (bdcd3721). Hotkeys work perfectly, as does Alt + Enter for full screen, while recording with Windows 10 game bar. It's just 2.8 itself that's not letting me do it.
