Minecraft Multiplayer is still disabled after I turned on all the necessary settings

I have done all of this and Minecraft's multiplayer is still disabled

Hi, thanks but I’m relatively experienced user. So I was aware of all above and a few more.

So for multiplayer games all is set as necessary in Xbox safety settings - either to allowed / all or not filtered.

We have waited 24 hours after setting change, we’ve logged him out from Minecraft launcher and back in. But still he sees for both Java/bedrock multiplayer locked…

In 365 subscription management he is added of course.

But still it doesn’t work.

There is sthg wrong somewhere else.

Can someone check the account sync with family setting is proper as it should work according to settings set. But it doesn’t…

Thanks

Michal

Hi,

I have the same issue as the original poster. I changed all my account settings, I have also created a dummy parent account and then changed the settings through that and it still did not work. I tried re-installing the game and it didn't work.

I had a friend who has an organiser account and he tried to disable multiplayer on it. He disabled multiplayer in Xbox settings but was still then able to access it in game.

I believe there is an issue with the update system between Minecraft and Xbox privacy settings.

Could you perhaps give me idea as to if this is an issue you guys could possibly fix?

Hi Joel,

This sadly didn't work. I created a new account and invited myself to a family. Using the parent account, I changed all the settings on the page from the first link to "allow" or "all". It still showed up as multiplayer disabled.

If it helps, I'm using Minecraft Java 1.21 for MacOS

Hi there,

Thank you for replying!

I haven't been opening minecraft via Console Companion, so now after finding the settings it shows the NAT type as open. But, it doesn't give me a status for the Xbox multiplayer. Also, I didn't specify but when I open minecraft after checking the network status, if I hover over 'Multiplayer', it says: 'Multiplayer is disabled. Please check your Microsoft account settings.' Do you know how this can be fixed and if so is this via the parent's family settings? (I mentioned before that we couldn't find the right setting)

Thank you for your time!
