"Unable to connect to world" Windows 10 Minecraft on Xbox One

Evan574585 · Sep 16, 2019

Pretty much all my friends and I are unable to connect to each other in Minecraft windows 10 for Xbox. We've played for YEARS with no issue until a couple of weeks ago. We've tried everything:

Checking NAT types (Did nothing)

Uninstalling and reinstalling the game (Did nothing)

Unfriended and friended each other (Did nothing)

Checking if windows firewall was blocking it (It wasn't)

Making sure "Join multiplayer games" is set to allow in "Xbox One/Windows 10 online privacy" tab (it already was)

We've tried everything we can think of and find online, but all we've found is people with the same issues and the Microsoft help team giving up after posting once, it's 2019 and for a game as simple as Minecraft it should be
something that was given a conclusive answer years ago. And btw it is ONLY for Minecraft, no other game has this issue in the slightest.

... I am transferring a Minecraft world from xbox one edition Minecraft to Java edition and Windows 10 edition.

The Minecraft Xbox One Edition only works on the Xbox One Edition.

You might want to upgrade to the Minecraft (without Xbox One Edition in the name) on your Xbox. If you bought Minecraft Xbox One Edition digitally, you can upgrade to "Minecraft" for free.

Then you can import your world from the Xbox One Edition to "Minecraft" for Xbox One.

However, the Support page for Windows 10 Minecraft states: "The Windows 10 Edition does not currently support the transferring of worlds from other devices."

So you can't transfer your world between devices.

You might have to move your World to a paid online Realm server to access it. Or you might have to run your Xbox One Minecraft in Multiplayer, and connect to the running world on your Xbox One with your Windows 10 version.

But you can't have your World separately transferred from Xbox to other devices.

As I said, you can try hosting your world on a Realm server (which you need to pay for), and can then access it with Windows 10, Xbox One, Android, iOS and Nintendo Switch.

But not JAVA.

Hello Zeus,

Thanks for coming to the forums. We recommend first trying to reboot your network hardware. If that doesn't work try removing each other as friend then adding each other back as friend. Try these and let us know.
