    Unable to reach "Privacy & Online Safety" setting


    So I've bought Minecraft. It says "Multiplayer is disabled. Please check your Microsoft account settings" When I hover above the Multiplayer or Realms button. I decided to google it. Not all guides are the exact same, but they all suggested to go to this page. Every time I do so, it redirects me to Xbox support. On there, it also has links to the same page.. When I clicked it, it redirects me to the same page. My age is under 18 and there is no parent account to control my Xbox account. I also tried opening it on several different browsers, tried entering different variations of the same link (which is the same as https://account.xbox.com/settings ), etc. All I know is that i am not able to access https://account.xbox.com/settings because it redirects me to this Xbox support page. The device and Minecraft platform isn't a console, it's a PC.

    :)

    Hi there,

    Thanks for reaching out to us today. I'm sorry to hear about the current issue adding friends on Minecraft. Are you unable to add friends through any other game? Since it mentions that it won't allow you due to the Xbox Live account settings I would like
    to clarify, is your account a child or adult account? If you want to manage your child's privacy settings, see
    How a parent can change the privacy and online safety settings for a child account.

    If you’re having trouble managing your privacy and online safety settings on your console,
    sign in with your Microsoft account and click
    Xbox One Online Safety to review and change your settings online.

    For more information check out our article
