    How can I stop the Microsoft family features blocking my games?

    Hello!

    My name is Dérek, I'm an independent platform consultant and I'm grateful for the opportunity to help you.

    2xog, if you're playing on a console, you'll need to set up your account this way.

    https://account.xbox.com/en-us/Settings?rtc=1&a...

    Let's set up your account then

    Go to the top right corner, click on your avatar

    click on xbox profile(warns me if it doesn't show up)

    will open a green screen

    click on privacy

    will open another screen, with your gamertag and big photo in the center of it

    below, it has 3 tabs, privacy, online security windows and xbox

    in these 2 tabs, allow everything, and at the end of each one, click "send"

    If you're on a PC, there might be a bug. Do it this way

    https://account.xbox.com/en-us/Settings?rtc=1&a...

    Go to the top right corner, click on your avatar

    click on my microsoft account

    will open a tab written my personal information

    Click, and go to the date of birth

    Change to 18+

    Resend, if you already have.

    Then log out of your account on the xbox app and log in again.

    If it persists, reinstall the app

    If it doesn't work, try looking for the game on the website and clicking install

    And also look directly in your windows store, and try to install

    I remain at your disposal if you have any further questions.

    THIS IS ***

    People need to stop moaning about family sharing. Just because microsoft was going to allow you to share your game with 10 people does not mean the publishers will. They would have had the ability to block family sharing i believe. Questions for family sharing
    were left unanswered. Would players be able to play multiplayer through the sharing function? I would not be surprised if this family sharing was for singleplayer only. I am sorry, but i would rather take no drm and no always online check thing then a feature
    that could possibly turn out to suck tremendously.

    Xbox game pass ultimate family sharing

    Hi Randy

    each if my two kids have their own accounts as family members already set up. What they want to do is use the online gaming features of xbox live under their own profiles on their own consoles. If they are part of my microsoft family group and i set my personal
    console as the hime console do they share ALL gamepass ultimate features (inclusive of live features) on their own profiles in their own consoles?

    if not how can this be achieved?’

    thanks

    not able to block specific apps in the Microsoft store on XB1 and XSX.

    add them to family safety then you can block access to all games that you deem bad and stop them downloading stuff without asking. just look up family safety.
