    Not having access to Minecraft multiplayer, even though I have changed my privacy settings.


    So sometime ago I migrated my Mojang account, and have started using my Microsoft account to play.
    Today I wanted to play multiplayer, but it said that I still had to change my privacy settings. After a quick google search, I was able to change and update my privacy settings to allow me to play MC multiplayer. The problem is that, even though my xbox privacy settings are all set to "allow", I still am not able to play anything multiplayer, nor am I able to add any xbox friends.

    I have no idea what to do next. I am a legal adult (18years of age), and live in Belgium.
    If someone would be able to help me out, I would be very grateful.

    I'm Samy an independent advisor. Welcome to the Xbox community. How are you?

    Try removing your account from the launcher and re-add it again, please.

    Hello, I just checked and I was not in a family group.

    Fortunately, I got it to work finally!

    What I did was that I changed my account settings back to "blocked", logged out of my Microsoft account, logged out of my xbox app, and deleted the Minecraft launcher. Then I went on a different browser (was using opera gx, so I tried google chrome) and relogged into my account and changed the settings back to "allow". And to my surprise, I can now finally play Minecraft multiplayer! :D
    I have no idea what did the trick, but in the end it worked. No idea if this information was even useful, but I am so excited thought I'd share it.

    Thank you very very much Samy, I will always be grateful for you help and cooperation!

    Hope you have a wonderful weekend, and goodbye :D

    Got it. Is your account within a family group? If so, leave this group and reinstall the launcher, please.

    Hello Samy, thanks for replying!
    I just did what you asked me and relaunched the game, and still it says that I need to "check my Microsoft account settings".
    I have even relogged into my xbox app. It still does not seem to be functioning. :(

    I cannot play minecraft multiplayers even though i have changed my privacy setting (i am playing on a pc)

    Hello Dum D, my name is Oskayra, and I will be happy to help you.

    Beforehand, it is important that you keep in mind that this is a public community forum, so we are players like you, we are not employees of Microsoft or Xbox, so we do not have access to any user account or check anything from the forum. All users help each other with common problems.

    I am very sorry for the problem you are going through. If you have already changed the privacy options, then you can try a method that a user shared on the Danipvp22 forum:

    Log out of all the places on your PC where you have your Microsoft account open and then start the launcher again.

    Thank you for your patience, I hope everything can be resolved. I will be attentive to your response. Blessings.

    Sincerely,
    Oskayra.
