Minecraft: cannot accept invitation to realm due to “incorrect privacy and online safety settings”
I am experiencing a problem where I am unable to accept an invitation to a friend's Realm on Minecraft for Windows 10.
Whenever I attempt to accept the invitation, I get the message
You cannot play online multiplayer through Xbox
Live because of how your account is set up. This
can be changed in your privacy & online safety
settings on Xbox.com
I have checked through my Privacy & Online Safety settings, and have verified that my Join multiplayer games option is, in fact, set to Allowed. Despite this, I am still unable to accept the invitation.
Can anyone help me out here?

I've restarted Minecraft, I've restarted my PC… I've done this lots of times now. It lets me connect to someone else's world, but not realms.

Have you tried using different versions of minecraft? Or maybe its something with your friend's realm.

One of my other friends has been able to access the realm just fine, so it's probably not that. I am unable to purchase and download other versions of Minecraft: Bedrock Edition, meaning that Minecraft for Windows 10 is the only version I can test this on.

From what I can tell, it seems (to me) that the account you're trying to sign in on is a child account.

The account in question is an adult account (I verified this just now), and having also read the post linked it appears that the issue is occurring on a great deal many more adult accounts than child accounts (with child accounts having been confirmed to be able to connect while adult ones for some reason cannot).
