  1. Annoying message keeps poping up in Xbox app


    I'm using windows 11. Each time I open the xbox app, it shows a message:

    "change your privacy settings to send messages Go to settings"

    I went to settings and disabled everything that allows a person to see me. I do not want to send messages. I also do not want to see this message every time I open xbox.

    How can I disable this?

    There is already a question about this in

    https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...messages/006e9096-32d7-48bb-9396-105a891c51e6 but the answer is not clear and I cannot follow it (maybe it applies to an older version of windows or xbox app)

    :)

    Hello Geri.

    Thank you very much. Unfortunately, I cannot follow the recommendation of reinstalling windows. I do a lot of software development with this machine and it takes days to set it up properly, so I prefer to not risk this.

    As for XBox keeping to show this message, I might end up living with it, or might end up canceling the game pass and using steam.

    Thank you for your help Geri.
