  1. Can't play multiplayer games because of microsoft family


    I have never joined a microsoft family account or created one but for some reason i am in one and that doesn't let me access my privacy settings so i can't turn on multiplayer.
    There's no leave family button under my name like the support page says (I am over 18 years old)

    Please can someone help me figure out a way to turn on multiplayer

    :)

    how do i enable minecraft multiplayer on java edition?

    The problem isn't that i can't enable the multiplayer in family thing, it's that after i enabled multiplayer it still wouldn't allow me to play multiplayer.

    Microsoft and Xbox accounts seperate

    Let's use minecraft as an example

    Trying to select multiplayer brings up the message Multiplayer is disabled. Please check your Microsoft account settings

    The issue is I can't, it leads me to a redirect saying that if you're seeing this it's because you're not allowed within your family

    I've never been in a microsoft family

    So when I try to check if I'm in a family, i use the same email and password and everything

    But sign into a different account

    It's still me, but not associated with the xbox account

    What do I do

    This is really annoying

    How am i supposed to change my account settings

    Hi AmeliaShields! My name is Ricardo an independent advisor ready to help you with this situation!

    You don't get to that site because you are in a Microsoft family but because child's account cant view their privacy settings an adult is required to add him to a Microsoft family here

    https://account.microsoft.com/family/

    After the adult account creates the family and adds the minor's account to his family In order for you to be able to play multiplayer, you must change the privacy settings of your account. It can be done here

    https://account.xbox.com/settings

    More information about that here
