    Hi, my name is , I'm an Independent Consultant and a member of the Xbox community like you.

    Remembering that this is a community forum and just like you we are Xbox users and players.

    Access the page;

    If your children's accounts are in a family group, you need to log in with your Administrator account and select their profile.

    Click on "Online Security of Xbox and Windows 10 devices"

    Change Allow to the following options:

    "You can join cross-network play"

    "You can create and join clubs"

    "You can join multiplayer games"

    "You can upload screenshots to Xbox"

    "You can add friends and follow others"

    Then click Submit and see if the problem persists.

    Minecraft Xbox One Multiplayer Issue (Unable to Join World)

    Hi Sa1ty,

    Are you sure your Minecraft world settings do allow for multiplayer? I don't know what the default settings are, but maybe these do not allow for multiplayer?

    Hopes this helps you!
