Child account not showing up in Xbox privacy settings

Job Castrop · Jan 11, 2017

I've added the account to my Microsoft family, but it's not showing in my Xbox-settings on this website.

So the account can't accept my friend request, so we can't play Minecraft together.

Please help!

The privacy settings are separate from the whethere the account is child or adult. If your account is set up as a child account, there might be a parent gamertag that could change your privacy settings...

Hello!

Thanks for bringing this inquiry to our attention here on the forums. I understand you're having issues setting up your Settings on a child account is that correct? You will need to sign into an adult account that is a member of the same Microsoft Family
as the child account to change the settings for the child account.

Some xbox live features need changes to be made in the privacy settings of a child account to be used. The changes in the child account can be done through the parental account as shown here: Change
