    I can't add friends on Xbox because of how my Microsoft account is set up, how do I change my safety settings to allow Multiplayer?

    Hi Okay.. _., my name is Jose. An independent advisor.

    To change your Microsoft account security settings to allow multiplayer on Xbox, follow these steps:

    On your Xbox console, press the Xbox button to open the guide.
    Select Profile & system > Settings > Account > Online privacy and security > Xbox Privacy.

    In the Friends & Clubs section, set Can create or join clubs to Allow.

    In the Games & chat section, set You can receive messages from other players to Allow.

    In the Games and groups section, set Can join public games and groups to Allow.

    Once you've made these changes, you should be able to add friends and play multiplayer games on Xbox.

    Here is a more detailed description of each step:

    Step 1: Open your Xbox guide.

    To open your Xbox guide, press the Xbox button on the controller.

    Step 2: Select Profile & system > Settings > Account > Online privacy and security > Xbox Privacy.

    This will open the privacy settings for your Microsoft account.

    Step 3: In the Friends and clubs section, set You can create or join clubs to Allow.

    This will allow you to create and join clubs on Xbox Live.

    Step 4: In the Games and chat section, set You can receive messages from other players to Allow.

    This will allow you to receive messages from other players on Xbox Live.

    Step 5: In the Games and groups section, set You can join public games and groups to Allow.

    This will allow you to join public games and groups on Xbox Live.

    I hope this information has been useful to you.

    Kind Regards.
    Jose.

    Child cannot play Minecraft online with PS4

    Message that appears states this:

    You cannot add friends because of how your Microsoft account is set up. This can be changed in your privacy & online safety settings at aka.ms/accountsettings.

    This makes me think it's not a PS4 issue/setting, but a MS setting.
