Windows 10: Minecraft Windows 10 multiplayer issue

me and my friends have been playing on a Minecraft world for a few weeks. they play on mobile, and i play on PC. recently when one friend disconnected and tried to join again, he could not join and was suck on the " locating sever". on the internet is said to kill him in game, so i did that and he was able to play in my world again. my other friends had this problem yesterday but not today. but now they cant see my in game messages. my game is also really buggy. this only happened in 1 world, if i create a new world everything is fine.? is there anything i can do or do we have to restart?

Issue with playing multiplayer on Minecraft due to Microsoft settings.

There have been other issues raised with this exact problem, however none of them seem to address it and solve it. Here is my exact situation:

• I have Minecraft Windows 10 edition installed on my laptop.
• My account is not a child account, its birthday set is 1/1/2000, and it is not under a family.
• All settings on my X-Box and Microsoft account allow for multiplayer, and I am in fact logged into the proper account on my machine and Minecraft.

When I open Minecraft, I get the following error:





I've triple checked my settings, and I've uninstalled/reinstalled it on my machine, but to no avail. What's the issue here?

 

Homegroup For Minecraft Servers Or What?

It looks as if the existing minecraft server will use the new system without modification - It needs to be able to access the computers on the network in a two way link, which is the standard for Workgroup and Homegroup

There is a complete step by step available, if you have any issues ...

Tutorials/Setting up a server – Official Minecraft Wiki

It's not something I have any direct experience with but a quick read suggests to me that you will not need to do Much if any reconfiguration of the existing server

 

Minecraft Multiplayer

Hi
Nylalolo,

Thanks for reaching Microsoft Community. We're sorry to hear that you can't do multiplayer with your friends. But pretty sure, we suggest to contact first the developer of the application or reach out to their forums. Because this is already more on the
application itself. For sure, they can provide correct details on this.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Edd
