Minecraft Windows 10 - I can join friend’s world, but he cannot join mine

Maya Orloff · May 21, 2020

Since we played on java previously, me and my friend both decided to get Minecraft Bedrock so that we could join each other’s worlds. We do not have Realms. I can join any world he makes, but if i send him an invite, it does not even reach him. He checks
the friends tab, doesn’t receive the invite. We checked his privacy settings, everything is turned on that needs to be, his NAT is open, we are friends on the Xbox console, but he is still not getting my invites. If there’s any way you can help me, that would
be appreciated, or should I send this question over to Xbox support? Thanks.

Minecraft support is also there to help

I have emailed them, yes, but I know they have a tendency to take a little bit to get back to you, so I figured I'd try a couple different support lines to get the most advice possible. But thank you.

So... it appears you're having problems connecting to your friends worlds in Minecraft for Windows 10.

I would have them check their in-game settings in Minecraft under the main menu there, and make sure that Online play is enabled. Sometimes this is switched to being disabled and therefore they cannot join any online games and friends cannot join their game
either. Both you and your friends should check in Minecraft settings and make sure that Online play is enabled and friends are allowed to join. Then you can select which permissions you would like to enable for your friends when they join your world after
that.

I have activated all these settings and my child’s profile still cannot add friends on minecraft. I can join his world but he cannot join my world. He shows 1 friend on the friends tab but it doesn’t show any joinable friends or my world inside the friends
tab. I have even changed all settings to allow everything (defeats the purpose) and I still cannot add friends on his account. Please help!!!!!!
