Hi Lily Batalenka

If you’ve already verified the Xbox/Microsoft privacy settings, try signing out of Minecraft Launcher, Xbox app, and Microsoft Store, then restart your PC and sign back into all three with the same Microsoft account. A sign-in mismatch can keep the Multiplayer button disabled even when the permissions are correct.

If the account is part of a Microsoft Family, have the family organizer confirm that “You can join multiplayer games” and “You can join cross-network play” are both set to Allow. Changes can sometimes take up to 24 hours to propagate.

• Minecraft Java or Bedrock?
• The exact message shown when you hover over or click the greyed-out Multiplayer button.
