Cannot remove family sharing invitation

I have an invitation on my system preferences that says "XXX has invited you to Family Sharing". When I click on this invitation I get the message "This action cannot be completed at this time". There is no option to deny this invitation and I would like to get it removed.

MacBook Air, macOS 12.6

Have you tried restarting the computer? Are you running any anti - virus programs? Using a VPN?


If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer or by using the developer’s uninstall instructions. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.
