CAN´T ADD FRIENDS BECAUSE OF PRIVACY DEFINITIONS ON XBOX WINDOWS 10 APP

Hi! follow the steps here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us...ety-and-privacy-settings-for-parents-and-kids

Hi!

Xbox Live subscription is not needed to add friends, but it is needed to play multiplayer.

I suggest to check your Microsoft Account privacy settings here:

https://account.xbox.com/settings

Check the You can add friends option under the Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety tab.

Hi,

Creating a family helps you manage privacy and online safety settings for children and teens on Xbox One, Windows 10, and Windows Phone 10.

Any adult in the family can add new members to the family. To add a family member, follow the steps on this page:

Hi buddy,

The Xbox app on Windows 10 is very different and separate from both the Games and SmartGlass apps in Windows 8. Although it incorporates many features from both, it also adds a lot more features such as Game DVR for PC games, the ability to stream games
from your Xbox one console and you can set-up parties and talk to your friends on PC or Xbox One.

When you are in the Xbox app on Windows 10, you will also show up as online to your friends on console.

You can adjust the privacy settings on an Xbox console too if you have one, but the web site works too.

I have kids myself, and I manage their Xbox privacy settings. When I go to the aka.ms/accountsettings link and sign in as myself, I see my kids' accounts listed and I can adjust their settings.

The setting you want is under "Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety" and is called "Add Friends"
