Windows 10: Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety - You can join multiplayer games (Not switching to allow)

I've recently purchased Forza Horizon 4 for PC and I cant seem to get online, after a bit of reading around someone on another website said check your privacy & online settings are on allow on the Xbox One/Windows 10 Online Safety tab are all checked except ONE is on block and its the 'You can join multiplayer games'

When I Allow it and save the settings it reverts back to Block again.

Some people said you need an xbox one to change the settings.. I don't have an xbox one.

I do have an adult account and have never been apart of any sort of family account.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

:)

 

Cannot join multiplayer games due to privacy setup.

Hello, I mostly game on pc notably halo wars 2.

It's been fun, but now I cannot join multiplayer games due to privacy setups. When I access my xbox live account and visit privacy settings I found this.

You can join multiplayer games
Decide to allow or block joining multiplayer games on Xbox Live.

It is stuck on blocked. Hitting allow and submitting only refreshes the game and keeps it on blocked.
