    Parties not working


    Whenever I start or join a Xbox party on game bar it I can't hear or speak even when I switch my audio a few times. After around a minute it kicks me out the party with the message "Something went wrong, please try again." If I try to join a party after the message occurs game bar will instantly click out of itself. I have gone out my way with uninstalling and reinstalling game bar and it still doesn't work. This issue first started happening to me 2-3 weeks ago.

    Holding the power button shuts the console down while, at the same time, clearing the cache to allow it to run games and apps more smoothly.

    Hi there! This is Virginia O.

    I understand that you are experiencing issues with your party chat not working.

    I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

    Please reset the Xbox Game Bar App by going to Settings > Apps > Apps & Features. Find Xbox Game Bar, click Advanced Options, and select Reset. This can clear any glitches.

    And then check audio device settings. To do this, open the Game Bar (Windows key + G), go to Settings > Party Chat, and ensure the correct input and output devices are selected.

    Next is to update Audio Drivers. Open Device Manager, locate your audio device, right-click, and select Update Driver. Outdated drivers can cause audio issues.

    Then check app permissions. Go to Settings > Privacy > Microphone and ensure Xbox Game Bar has permission to access your microphone.

    After that is to adjust volume mixer. Right-click the volume icon on the taskbar, select Open Volume Mixer, and ensure all Xbox Game Bar instances have their volumes turned up.

    Kindly check privacy settings by signing in to Xbox.com, go to Account Manager > Xbox Settings > Privacy & Online Safety, and ensure communication settings are set to Everyone.

    Thank you for your cooperation.

    Hey there Wyo!

    If you haven't yet, try
    power cycling     your console. That can often help clear up a lot of things that pop up.

    Let us know how it goes. :)
