    My microsoft account isnt set up to play multiplayer


    I bought a minecraft account with my microsoft account, but it wont let me play multiplayer. I followe the guide and i went onto my xbox and turned on multiplayer games, but minecraft still says my account settings are wrong. When viewing this, the only thi9ng seemingly helpful is "manage app privacy settings online" however the link it provides just reloads the webpage, and it says to input my gamertag when there are no text input options. Then the fact that the only way to directly contact microsoft is through calling them, which isnt 24/7 (because the biggest tech company in the world doesnt have 24/7 support)

    :)

    Xbox live gold problem.

    It says this when I try to play online, “you cannot play online multiplayer because of how your Microsoft account is set up”

    You cannot play online multiplayer because of how your microsoft account is set up.

    I wanted to play Minecraft PS4 servers but when i signed into my Microsoft account i couldn't play servers because of the message that popped up "You cannot play online multiplayer because of how your Microsoft account is set up." please help me resolve
    this problem because i have nothing on my account restricting this type of play.

    Please send advice quickly as possible.
    I have the same issue with my children’s accounts. No matter what settings I change, they cannot play with me on my realm.

    This is infuriating especially since it’s only affecting minecraft. I can play other multiplayer games with them, though.

    he isnt using a guest account because i set the xbox up specifically with his own account on it, but when i log into my Microsoft account and check under family, his account is linked to my email address.

    Multiplayer on Minecraft Xbox S

    Hello,

    I am trying to play multiplayer on the Xbox S, more specifically cross-platform play. I do not have Xbox live, but I don't need it to play. When I try to join it says that "You cannot play online multiplayer because of how your Microsoft Account is set up"
    but all of my privacy settings allow online gaming and multiplayer gaming. My account is also an adult account so it's not like I need permission. I tried everything, restarting my console and router as well as talking to the virtual agent. All of my settings
    give permission and I just don't know what the problem is.

    Thank you
