How to leave Xbox family group?

Liza_l · Dec 4, 2022

The problem is that I have restrictions on

excecebility to my profile (for example, changing nickname, I can't see any pictures of a game in Xbox app or I can’t play in multiplayer in Minecraft(mobile version)). When I sign in my Xbox web account, the first thing I see is that I can't change my privacy because of Xbox family group. As far as I remember, I have never entered in any groups. I tried to follow the answer of how to leave it and when I select Family in Microsoft site, I see only me, so now I have no idea how to leave an imaginary group and take full control of my Xbox account

Hi Liza_I

As you’re a minor you need to join to a family group in this case
For this purpose you can ask your dad or mom this
All you need to do is ask them to sign with their account here
https://account.microsoft.com/family/home > add member > family member and follow the on-screen steps

Once added you can change your privacy settings using their account and once you’re an adult you can do it yourself

No, I’m not able to see these three dots. I’m 17 and the age in my Microsoft account profile is the same as my real age.

The same thing is happening to me to except I’m literally 27 years old

Hope you're doing great today despite this Liza_L

Once you’re in the family group page https://account.microsoft.com/family/home
Are you not able to see three little dots next to “You”?

If not, how old are you?
Is the age in Microsoft account profile the same as your real age?

Hi Elouadghiri H, my name is Rishabh, I hope you are doing great out there. I’m happy to help you with your question.

Please note that the ability to leave a family group may depend on the permissions and roles set by the family organizer. If you do not see the option to leave the family group, it's possible that the family organizer has restricted this action. In that case, you might need to contact the family organizer to request to be removed from the family group.

If you're looking to leave a family group on Xbox, here's how you can do it:

1. From Xbox Console:

Sign in to the Xbox console with the account that is part of the family group.
Press the Xbox button to open the guide.
Navigate to the "Profile & system" tab.
Scroll down to "Settings" and select "Account."
Choose "Family settings."
Select the family member you want to remove from the family group.
Choose "Remove from family."

2. From Xbox Family Settings App:

Download and install the Xbox Family Settings app on your mobile device.
Sign in with the account that is part of the family group.
Open the app and navigate to the "Family" section.
Select the family member you want to remove.
Choose "Remove from family."

3. From Xbox Website:

Go to the Xbox Family Settings website: https://family.microsoft.com/.
Sign in with the account that is part of the family group.
Click on the family member's profile you want to remove.
Select "Remove from family."

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks and regards
