Xbox privacy settings

Myselium · Sep 18, 2018

Hello,

I have a problem and i hope you can help me.

When i use the Xbox app on windows 10 it says that i cant use search and party's because my privacy settings are incorrect.

So i thought changing those would fix it, but when i go to settings on the xbox page it links me to the Microsoft help page about privacy and child control?! What can i do about this?

:)

Xbox prevents me from creating Looking for Group posts or joining

Have you checked your Xbox settings?

Settings > Privacy & online safety > Xbox Live privacy, There is a setting for Clubs

If that still does not work, check your account privacy settings here: Microsoft Account Privacy Settings

Look for the Xbox section, and make sure that your account does not have Groups set to Block.

Hello Myselium!

Has there been an attempt to uninstall the application itself to see if the changes had not been updated?

Try following this neat link for How to uninstall apps on Windows 10.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

No it did not work. I double checked the Microsoft Family Safety website and it shows "my family" and gives me the option to add members even though I don't see any option to leave said family so I'm not sure if I do am in a family group or not.

Thank you for replying.
