    Found the answer on a Reddit thread. Change "You can view and upload community content" to everyone. My daughter can now play again. Yay

    Hi, the settings may not have saved properly or the account could still be recognized as a child account. Please sign in here https://account.xbox.com/Settings and make sure that "You can join multiplayer games" is set to allow. If your account is part of a Microsoft Family Group, a parent account may need to update these settings on your behalf. Make sure your date of birth on your Microsoft account is correct. Roblox requires you to be over 13 for certain features. After making changes, log out of Roblox and Xbox, then restart your laptop and sign back in.

    I had the same problem. All I did was uninstall it on the Microsoft Store and then reinstall it, and that ended up working for me.
