Windows 10: Game Bar broadcasting?

I'm trying to broadcast a game so a friend, on xbox who I'm in a party with, can see it. I'm not seeing a broadcast button anywhere, and I have the setting for recording and captures on. I can record easily, just not broadcast.

I turned my xbox off just in case it was interfering with the broadcast option, but nothing changed.

Do I have to download Mixer, since that seems to be the default on xbox? Or is there some fix to this

Cannot broadcast with Game Bar even after enabling it in settings


Hello,
I'm trying to broadcast with Game Bar to Mixer and I cannot get it to work. When I try to hit "Broadcast" in the Game Bar I get a pop up that says "Loading..." and it then tells me to change my Xbox settings. I later discovered that I had to enable broadcasting in my privacy settings, so I did. However, I still get the same error.





Anyone have any solutions? Thanks!
