  1. Xbox App on Windows 10 Not receiving Console game invites


    My fiance and I have been playing Sea of Thieves, he on his Xbox One Console, and myself on my Windows 10 Computer. Only problem is that I can only invite him to games because the Xbox App on my Windows doesn't give me notifications on game invites! Is there
    a fix for this? Its becoming exceedingly frustrating.

    :)

    Windows 10 Xbox App No Notifications

    I am not receiving party invites on my Xbox Windows 10 App. This makes it very difficult to join my friend's parties sometimes.

    1. Click the Start icon and open the Xbox app.
    2. Select Settings > Network.
    3. Under Network status, check the NAT type.

    Once you got the result, please refer to this link
    and perform the suggested solutions on your computer and your friend's computer. Follow the steps in order to get more accurate results.

    We also recommend that you check your privacy and online safety settings on Xbox.com to ensure that your profiles are allowed to join multiplayer games and parties.

    Kindly update us with the results.

  5. I've checked my NAT type and its Open. I've also checked my online security setting and they're all essentially set to FRIENDS, with game invites being set to EVERYBODY. I didn't change any of these settings, but I'm still not receiving
    game invites. It's an XBox One to XBox Windows 10 App issue.

    Hi Tea Tongue Tess,

    Normally, you should receive notifications for game invites on your Windows 10 computer. It's possible that it got disabled on your computer. Let's try to check it this time by going to
    Settings > System > Notifications & actions on your computer. From there, kindly check the toggle switch under "Get notifications from apps and other senders" if it's switched on. If so, kindly turn it off,
    then turn it back on again to refresh its status.

    If you still didn't receive notifications for game invites, kindly launch your Xbox app and then click the gear icon to access the Settings page. From there, go to
    Notifications tab and check if "Party & game invitations" option is marked as enabled. If so, kindly unmarked this option and then marked it again to refresh its status.

    Keep us updated with the result. We'd be glad to further assist you.

    Xbox app club invites

    Hi there!

    As long as you have an Xbox profile, you should be able to use the club features available on Xbox Live without needing an actual console for it to work.

    Does this happen with any club invitation that you receive? Are there any issues with requesting an invite and then joining other clubs?

    Do you have Xbox Live Gold? Do you have a Windows 10 PC by any chance to try on the Xbox app for Windows 10?

    Not receiving invites or notifications

    just a quick update, I realized after some testing with a buddy that I only receive invitations if my computer that runs windows 10 is turned on. I've gone through the notifications menu in the Xbox app and everything. I cannot receive invitations so long
    as my computer is turned off. How is this even an issue
