How do I remove or turn off Microsoft family

Hi and thanks for reaching Microsoft Xbox gamer's community. My name is Josef.

I'm an Independent Advisor and a Microsoft Xbox user like you.

Hope you're doing great today Silas

If you are an adult / your account is an adult account you can always leave the family group

All you need to do is sign in with your account here:

https://account.microsoft.com/family/home > click on the little three dots next to "You" > select Leave family group

-----

If you're not able to do that, unfortunately you need to ask to the family organizer this favor

how do I turn off family settings?

Hi,

Kayece here. Do not worry, I will be here to help and assist you today.

May I ask if you are an admin or parent of the family account?

If you want to remove the family account, you need to remove the members and then remove yourself.

Please note that if you are not an admin or parent of the family account, you cannot remove yourself.

I hope this helps. If you need more assistance, please let me know.

Stay Safe!

I am sorry to hear that.

Let us review if all these options are enabled by checking your account privacy settings.

Please, enter this site: https://account.xbox.com/settings

On the Privacy Tab options:

"See other people's Xbox Live profiles" > Set it to either Everyone or Friends

"You can see and upload community creations" > Set it to either Everyone or Friends

"You can communicate outside of Xbox Live with voice & text" > Set it to Allow

Click Submit.

Then, switch over to the Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety tab.

Set the options bellow to Allow:

"You can play with people outside of Xbox Live"

"You can join multiplayer games"

"You can add friends"

Don't forget to click on "Submit" to save the settings.

Let me know if it works!
