    [Game Pass PC/Xbox Game Bar] I can't switch my status to online


    My friends always see my status as offline, despite being online and even when playing togheter.

    I've seen similar problems here in the forums and the solution was to switch the status within xbox game bar.

    When I try to change it though, the "appear online" button becomes greyed out and it doesn't switch.

    Solutions I've tried so far:

    - Updating and rebooting system

    - Repairing xbox game bar

    - Turning on nearly every privacy change that involves friends/social activity

    :)

    [Game Pass PC/Xbox Game Bar] I can't switch my status to online

    I'm experiencing the same issue on all devices with an xbox app linked to my account. Already tried this and it didn't work. It's been like this for me since the server outages that occurred a couple of hours ago. This is so frustrating.

    Hi there! Sorry to hear about what happened.

    Could you please sign in your account to an Xbox app on mobile? Then try to go to the Profile tab and click on "Appear Online" if that changes your status correctly.

    xbox console companion- how to stop console companion from displaying what i'm doing

    Hi,

    You can change your online Status on PC via the Game Bar. Press and hold the Windows Key and
    tap G on the keyboard.

    Or with an Xbox controller attached to the PC, access the Game Bar by pressing the
    Xbox button.

    Depending on how the Game Bar is set up on the PC a number of Windows will be displayed. Showing as Online or Offline is available in the Xbox Social window. To configure the game bar to your liking, press the Overlay Menu, next
    to the time. This will allow you to change what Windows of the Game Bar are displayed.

    Does the Xbox Game Bar have an issue?

    I have the same issue with Diablo IV on the xbox game bar. The game was install using battle.net. It appears the xbox game bar recognizes it is a game however, my status only shows online. I believe this is the only game so far that I have encounter this issue. The resources top task in the game bar shows battle.net as high and not Diablo IV, but the task manager shows Diablo IV. Call of Duty was installed using battle.net as well; however, xbox game bar shows the status as playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare.
