Windows 10: Can't join others parties on xbox game bar. Receive an error message of "Your xbox profile...

I tried reparing and resetting both game bar and the xbox app. This issue just started and I have been using game bar for years.

Xbox Game Bar Crashing When Joining Party

Xbox Game Bar has recently started crashing parties when I join them. If I join myself or if I am invited, it will automatically kick me from party and also boot every other party member out of the party as well. I have rolled back a recent Windows update
and reinstalled all of my drivers. I have tried terminating, repairing, and reinstalling Xbox Game Bar, and nothing seems to work. Any idea how to fix?
