Xbox Family Settings appearing out of nowhere

Hello Tiger 131,

Thank you for understanding.

Hello! I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing issues with your Xbox account. I understand that your account is suddenly showing up as part of a family group, and you're unable to change your profile picture or privacy settings. I'll do my best to help you with this.



Firstly, I would recommend checking if you're still part of a family group. You can do this by signing in to your Microsoft account and going to the Family page. If you're not part of a family group, then it's possible that there may be a glitch with your account.



In this case, I would suggest trying the following steps:

Check if your account is part of a family group.

• Go to the Xbox Family Settings page
  
• Sign in with the Microsoft account associated with your Xbox Profile
  
• If you see a message that says "You're not part of family yet." then your account is not part of a family group
  
• If you see a message that says "You're part of a family," then click on "Manage family members" to see who else is in the group
  

Remove yourself from the family group:

• Go to the Xbox Family Settings page
  
• Sign in with the Microsoft account associated with your Xbox Profile
  
• Click on "Manage family members"
  
• Click on your name
  
• Click on "Remove from family"
  

If you are using an Xbox Console, you can also try this:

1. Sign out of your Xbox account on all devices.

2. Clear the cache on your Xbox console. You can do this by going to Settings > System > Storage > Clear local saved games.

3. Restart your Xbox console.

4. Sign back into your Xbox account and check if the issue has made some differences.

Obviously, I know where family settings are. That wasn't the question. Nowhere in family settings is there a setting for blocking the store.

Hi there KimHenderson1

Some accounts can appear offline on the profile themselves, so they won't appear but also there can some family settings on account stopping the communication and will show users offline due security settings on family settings if they are set up that way. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/browse/xbox-one/security/Social and broadcast

Same issue ..people appearing out of nowhere....ducking out of the room only to be rubber banded back in and killed. 30Mbps internet is more than enough bandwidth...
