we bought the Minecraft Java Edition to use it in multiplayer mode, but this option is disabled. Error message is 'Multiplayer is disabled. Please check your Microsoft account settings'. Unfortunately we can't find anything that could be changed. Any ideas? Thx!

ok I've found this its like start here:

https://account.microsoft.com/family/

then pick More Options > Xbox settings - this will take you to the xbox account, that is linked to the MS one and there go to Privacy & online settings, then pick a child login and the second tab is Xbox1 / Win10 online security page where you can allow the kid to play multiplayer games (second option from the bottom)

    Hey, thanks for the advice, and I thought it would work, and it probably would have, but when I was on the last stage, it keeps saying, "We were unable to load your settings at this time. Please try again later." If you could reply to how I can fix this, or why this happens, then I'd really appreciate it. If you don't know, that's fine. Thanks for the advice anyway.
