    How to enable Minecraft multiplayer


    I have wasted loads of time trying to enable multiplayer for my children. I have pasted the directions below I keep seeing online, but THEY DO NOT WORK. I cannot find a settings icon in the Xbox login OR the Microsoft family screen that has "Manage Minecraft" OR "Content restrictions." WHERE DO I FIND THIS INFORMATION????

    If a member of your family group wants to play multiplayer features in Minecraft, such as Minecraft Dungeons and Minecraft Realms, an organizer can adjust these settings by using the Xbox Family Settings app.

    1. Sign in to the app with an organizer’s Microsoft account, and then do one of the following to get to Settings:
      • Select the tile for the member’s account that you want to manage, and then select the Settings icon in the top-right corner of the Family screen.
      • Select the Settings icon at the bottom of the Family screen, and then select the tile for the member’s account that you want to manage.
    2. Select Manage Minecraft under Content restrictions.
    3. If Minecraft is rated above a member’s age limit, enable Allow gameplay under Enable Minecraft to grant the member an exception to play it.
      • Enable Multiplayer to let a member play Minecraft with others online, even if their account settings block them from multiplayer features.
    You can revoke this access at any time by repeating these steps. For more info about configuring settings for members of your Xbox family group, see: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help/family-online-safety/family-settings-app/manage-child-content-in-the-Xbox-Family-Setting-app

    Note: You can find additional parental settings at https://account.xbox.com/settings. 

    The Xbox Family Settings app is an easy way for adults to manage their children’s gaming activities on Xbox consoles and PC. You can modify your family group settings and access additional parental controls for your children from the app. See Xbox Family Settings App for more information.

    Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

    good evening

    To change the privacy settings your account must be an adult account, otherwise you will not have access.

    see it in your privacy settings:

    if your account is for a child, you need an adult account to link your account and manage your privacy settings

    How to enable minecraft multiplayer?

    Hi there! My name is Darhyl and I’d be more than happy to help you with your query.

    I'm sorry you are experiencing this with your Minecraft multiplayer error.

    I understand that you have already changed your Xbox privacy settings yet to no avail.

    Kindly try to perform the following workarounds just in case this would work according to the official Xbox website: https://support.xbox.com/en-US/help...ttings by selecting View details & customize.

    "Sign in to Xbox.com.

    Select your Gamertag, and then select the More actions button (…).

    Select Xbox settings, and then select Privacy & Online Safety.

    Select the Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Windows 10 devices Online Safety tab or the Privacy tab.

    Review the current settings and update all of the options as "Block", and then select Submit to save the changes.

    Note: You must select Submit at the bottom of the page before leaving or switching to another tab. If you don't submit the changes before you move to the other tab, your changes won't be saved."

    Then sign back in and update all of the options as "Allow" and "Everyone", and then select Submit to save the changes.

    Wait up to 24 to make sure the changes will be applied.

    After signing out, sign in back into the Microsoft Store and Minecraft launcher, then check if you will be able to access the Minecraft multiplayer feature.

    Thank you for your kindness and understanding! Please feel free to let me know if you need anything else.

    Best Regards,
    Darhyl
