Hi, thanks for the video. Can an auto screen time be used, like on the phone/ipad. Eg screen time on until 4pm and automatically locks pc at say 10:30pm?

Hi thanks for this, is there a way this can be used where our child has two laptops with the same email/log in and we want to shut down one of them and keep the other one active.

Thanks for taking the time to do this. MS needs people to help sort their stuff. Their own opening comments to set up family don't reference the need to set up an account and so on. Your appreciated.

Very helpful explanation! Thank you.

How can I change the pc administration to me instead of my child account?

Thank you 🙏🏾 very much the video really helped me

Very useful. Thank you.

Will this work for PC. I need a filter with a password for PC. Thanks

Thank You 🙏

So I just created an account for my daughter and got everything set up, am I know able to remove my account from the computer so it's only her account on it? Or does my account need to stay on there to? If I can remove my profile from the computer how would I do that?

Hi, thanks for the vid. I remember a Family Safety icon appearing in the taskbar tray where the clock is in Windows 10. Is this still the case in Windows 11, an indicator on the child account computer itself that it's running?

You might be thinking about the Windows Defender Icon, which is more of an antivirus program, it is not associated with Microsoft Family Safety.

@@FamilyTech Thank you for replying. Oh no, it was definitely Microsoft Safety, but maybe it only appeared when a notification for the limits would pop up. 🤔 Anyway, just a minor curiosity, I have it setup on a Windows 11 that was upgraded from 10. I'll just confirm once it's time to lock down. Thanks again. 😄

Thank you .

great description !!

this is great, it there any way you can change an account from admin to user. my son won a laptop but during the activation process, he set up his Gmail account as an admin? anyway, we can edit that instead of doing this from scratch??

Thanks.

Hi - I had a question: We have a laptop for our 10 year old to use for very limited purposes. I don't want to set up a separate Microsoft acct for him. Can I just select an existing option in the Edge settings to block out pornographic websites?

Hi your video was very useful. I got a new PC for my son and my nephew had set up a skype account instead of a microsoft account to login into the system. Previously my son had a laptop which had a microsft account and I put a parental control on the laptop. But when I wanted to acess the microsoft account in his new PC to put a parental control it is asking me to link from hus sprevious device. I tried linking but it didn't work and my son is scot free using his PC for many hours while I am at work. Any solution to this would be such a big relief. Please help.

If your child has admin rights on PC, or if he has local account in Windows 11 - internal parental control does not help you. In this case you can use the classical programs k9, Time Boss, Net Nanny or others...

Hi, I'm on this video not to turn on parental controls, but to disable them. My Dad set them up when I was 11 and for some reason after getting my new laptop a full decade later the parental controls automatically came back, still restricting me to content for 11 yr olds.

I wonder if the following is possible: 1 parent windows PC with one local admin account (of cause I have Microsoft account but is still logged in as a local old fashioned user account). My two kids have one android tablet respectively one Windows computer and one android tablet. He is logged in with local user account and I have the admin account password. This is his computer. My questions: do we as parents has to be logged in with Microsoft accounts on our parents PC or is it enough that the kids use theirs Microsoft accounts on their Windows devices? Maybe non have to be logged in with MS account and only have one attached Microsoft family account? Please answer ASAP. Thanks for a great video! 😊

Now I have set it all up I think, but I have a couple of questions. On som places Microsoft says that even smartphones is included but in the settings it only says windows and xbox decides in the time limit section. Which is it? This product is of total unuse for us if the time limit can't be divided on ALL devices (windows and android).... I'm getting very confused since I can see all devices on the first smaller screen time view but when I enter it there is only his windows computer. Have I missed anything? 🤔😒😒 Please answer.

I appreciate your work. It is helpful to be updated with all the necessary information and tools to keep our children safe. I followed your advice from another video when choosing an Android Phone for my kid. Now, my problem with Microsoft Family Safety. It works when I test run it myself but for some reason the child is able to circumvent it and use the PC for a long duration. Also your video timeline 4:21 min had a “Lock Devices” option which is unavailable to me. How do I get the option to lock the PC remotely? Sorry this is long. I appreciate your work and the help you are providing to us concerned parents.

If Microsoft Family Safety is to "hard" for you or your child, so you can use other parental controls apps. you are free to chose, depending on the age of a child or on the seriousness of control, eg K9 or Time Boss. Additionally you get forced breaks, limitation websites by time and others.

​@@kovalenkoihor4325 That doesn't change what it's doing. What this does is take away any respect the child had for their parent and take away any chance of seeing them as an equal. This will either create a horrible relationship where the child only pretends to be a different person around their parent and sucks up to them and acts like they control them, or it just makes the child despise them. a much better way to encourage a child to spend less time on their devices is to play with them one on one more, go outside together, encourage them to go hang out with friends etc. setting screen time does nothing but make the child feel less then human when compared to their parent. And by the way 2 hours is not enough to do anything and I guarantee that your child will grow up with a hatred towards you unless you remove their limits.
