Minecraft Windows 10 Edition - (Unable to connect to world) Friend can't join me and I can't join friend

Whenever we try to connect to each other's worlds through the Xbox app it says "Unable to connect to world". We can play together on a realms server, and can join other servers, just not each other.

I've changed my NAT type to open, and port forwarded all the required ports for the Xbox app. Still nothing.

I've tried using a VPN to several different countries but still has the same results.

We are both using Minecraft: Windows 10 Edition.

We have both uninstalled and reinstalled Minecraft, no luck.

    I had this issue just the other day. We both restarted our consoles and it worked after that.

    Really Microsoft? 2000 people saying they have the same problem for about a year now and you still havent found a solution? I have this same problem. Fix it now!

    I know. This NEEDS to be fixed. If it was a user error, I dont think 2000 people would be that dumb and have not a single person find a solution that works for the majority.
