  1. Minecraft Bedrock Edition stuck on "locating server"


    Hey,

    Yesterday after i updated Minecraft bedrock edition to 1.18.2 and ever since after that update i haven't been able to join my girlfriends world. It every time says "locating server" while my girlfriend can see me in the game but cant interact with me. But if she loads into another new world then it loads in it like normal. I looked up online on some solutions. For example reinstalling Minecraft, restarting my PC, reinstalling the Xbox app and game bar. But none of this has worked. We have played on this world for awhile and we don't want to start all over again, over this issue.

    Please could someone tell solutions on how to fix this?

    :)

    I know this is an old thread and hope it gets a response but I literally did ALL the steps from this and still just has the same "locating server" problem.

    Minecraft Bedrock Edition stuck on "locating server"

    Hi there Hayes welcome to the community forum! Christopher here, an Xbox fan just like you and has been on Xbox for years already. I would really love to make your day by helping you out. I suggest you try these basic troubleshooting steps!

    Open Settings, click Update and Security and then Windows Update;

    Click Check for Updates;

    Click the Download and Install Now option, if available;

    Also, check the Microsoft Store for any updates on the Xbox apps and its services.

    Then try this:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for gaming services app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then restore, open the app and try again.

    Then do the same for the Xbox app:

    Go to windows settings > apps > search for Xbox app > click on it and select advanced options.

    After that, click repair and then restore, open the app and try again.

    If it still doesn't work you're going to uninstall the games services using a powershell command, then you're going to open the gamepass app, it will ask you to download and install the game services again :

    In the windows search bar type Powershell > Right click and select open as administrator > Type the command: "get-appxpackage Microsoft.GamingServices | remove-Appxpackage –allusers" > Wait for the process to finish and then restart the PC, then open your Xbox gamepass app, it will ask you to install the gaming services again, install it and try again.

    Minecraft Bedrock Edition - "Stuck on Locating Server"

    It seems that the quantum energy which gives life to all beings has lost rythym, therefore shattering the barrier between time and space, causing your technological advance to become obsolete as time areound you rushes forth. For example, as an object which is in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by the multitude of electrons flowing through your neural receptors it will disperse energy throughout the air which will in turn begin to cause your IEEE 802.11b Direct Sequence signal to mutate, which would commence the butterly effect. When this mutation of the IEEE 802.11b Direct Sequence reaches the command post of your "Apex Hosting," it would, too, disrupt their output of IEEE 802.11b and cause your device to no longer be able to locate the server. The top scientists in the world are currently attempting to solve this problem but nobody quite knows when it will be concluded.
