Issue with game invites on PC

DamnedPeasants · Dec 9, 2019

So through the game bar, I receive invites but when I click on the check to accept and join them it doesn't work whatsoever, the banner stays and nothing happens. Extremely annoying, how do I fix this?

Hi,

So you can start a Voice Chat with another player, and then add other people to that voice chat (or they can join in). Starting a Voice Chat with someone on Windows 10 via the Game Bar is a One-to-one to start, and you can't just start
an "empty" party as you can on Console unless you use the Console Companion app.

This page has a few more details on the Game Bar, but additionally I believe you can still use the Xbox Console Companion App to start a party as well in the more traditional manner.

console companion is the better choice plus when you use game bar if you click out of the bar to play the game and you have push to talk enabled the game bar has to be open for you to talk. or you could always download the xbox beta app.

I have the same issue, if I force quit the game bar and relaunch it then I invite someone who is a XBOX user it will work but if I add a PC user it does not work for them. Also, if I force quit the app and the xbox user invites me it does not work same
if the PC user invites me. The issue seems to be with the PC app.

I fixed it, something weird with my 2 seperate accounts that they had the dame picture and similar names so had one signed in wrong

It's difficult to say where the issue is as the whole party invite system has been glitchy for the past week...I have my PC and Xbox on and sometimes the invite will come through on my PC but not my Xbox...sometimes it is just delayed and sometimes it works fine
