How do I change the family organizer to a family member and create a new family organizer?

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

You may need to leave the family group first, this will leave the family organizer the only one in the group, and then you can re-add the previous family organizer as a member.

Thank you for contact us! I'm Anderson, an Independent Consultant and a Microsoft user like you.

Good evening

Ask the current organizer to transfer their ownership to another member of the family sharing group. They can do this by going to Settings > [their name] > Family Sharing > Family Sharing Settings, and selecting the new member they want to transfer ownership to.

The new organizer will receive a notification that they have been assigned as the new organizer. They'll need to accept the invitation to become the new organizer.

Once the new organizer has accepted the invitation, the previous organizer will become a member of the family sharing group.

That means that a different family organizer added that members and only that family organizer can remove him, this is a safety measure

Hello,
Thank you for your response.
By logging into the link provided I see other family members; however, I only see the organizer, and not the other members of my family. I do not pop up as an organizer nor as a family member. The organizer still cannot see me, nor am I an organizer, because they are the only one. Thank you for the help, though it does not seem to have fully solved the issue.

Hi Ruben

If you're an adult you should be able to see the "remove from the group" option once you click on the three little vertical dots next to "You"

If that's not the case you need to do this:



When you're not able to change your privacy settings the option left is join to a family group and ask to the family organizer / adult account to change the settings for you

**If you're an adult you can ask to the family organizer to invite you as a family organizer as well, not member
