    Why can i not change my xbox privacy setting even though i am my family organizer.

    Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you with your concern.

    When you sign in to https://account.xbox.com/settings to manage your settings, are you being sent to an Xbox Support site? If yes, this may mean that the system detects that you're still not old enough even if you're an organizer.

    If you're still not old enough, an adult guardian or parent needs to manage your account and privacy settings. They'll need to add you as a member of their family group by signing in to https://account.microsoft.com/family/home, once you're added they should be able to sign in to https://account.xbox.com/settings to manage your settings for you, Rudra.

    I cannot change my privacy settings for Xbox even though I am the family organizer!

    Hello, first it's a pleasure to be able to help you today.

    My name is welcome to the community.

    Hello HuntingComb8781, do you want to exchange the privacy settings of the account, or would it be any account that is aggregated?

    If it's from your account, sign in through the Xbox website.

    https://www.xbox.com/

    After entering, click the profile picture in the upper right corner, and choose "Xbox Profile", then on the next page click on "Privacy Settings" and will open the "Privacy & online safety" page.

    Make the changes you want and click save at the bottom of the page.

    What should I do?

    I’ve tried going into my privacy settings but they’re all allowing everything to happen and when I recently changed my account to be a family organizer so I can change settings. But whatever I do it doesn’t allow me to purchase the map packs within the game. Even though I have them after buying the Season Pass.

    Cant change Xbox Settings.

    When I go there it says this:

    Why can’t I change my privacy settings?

    Note If you’re seeing this page, you were redirected here because you couldn’t change your privacy and online safety settings.

    This is likely due to two reasons:

    • You’re using a child account that’s a member of an Xbox family group
    • You’re using an adult account that’s set as a member of an Xbox family group
    In both cases, your family group’s organizer can update your privacy settings for you. However, if you’re of the age of majority (for example, 18 in the US), you can either leave your family group or be promoted to the organizer role.
