  1. Remove long URL (mut be a bug) from content restrictions always allowed section


    In the family section of my account, under "Content Restrictions", for "Web browsing" I have checked the "Only allow these websites" checkbox and listed some web sites.


    There is a web site from a google search that my child did, for a Khan Academy video, with this long URL:


    "Copy link" from URL I cannot remove


    This was added because my son asked for permission to view it, I got the popup notification on my PC, and selected to allow it. So I never manually entered that address.


    Now, when I click "Remove" next to this particular link, nothing happens. It is impossible to remove this particular link. I believe this is a bug in the microsoft web site. Due to the length and complexity of the link, it is likely that the JavaScript call messes up the link (maybe truncates it) and the server does not recognize the request to remove it (it gets a request to remove something else which does not exist on the list).


    I can remove other links. For example in the image attached you can see "python.org" has a "Removed - Undo" status because I just removed it for the purposes of grabbing the screenshot. The focus is on the remove button below it (long google.com link) which I have just clicked and marked with a red circle, but nothing happened.

    I have checked this with Microsft Edge, Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. All extensions disabled and cleared cookies and other saved data.


    THIS IS A BUG. Please report to development team to fix.


    Thank you

  2. Microsoft Account - Family Content Restrictions - Always Allow

    I have my account set up to manage three child accounts. I can set content restrictions by age without any issue, however there is a section within Content Restrictions that says "Always allow- When you
    allow specific apps and games, they'll appear here."

    I cannot figure out how to explicitly allow a particular Xbox One game to be played on a child account. How do I add games to this?

    Microsoft Family shared content restriction

    Thanks for the response, but this has nothing to do with what I'm asking. I know how to set content restriction for each of my children, but it becomes tedious for me to have to maintain 4 different content restriction "Only Allowed" list when that list
    will be the same for all 4 children. Is there a way to share that list or export/import the list among the children within the family?

    Can't Remove Websites from "ALWAYS ALLOWED" Content Restrictions on Child's Account in Microsoft Family

    The "REMOVE" button does not work when trying to remove a website from the "Always Allowed" web browsing content restrictions on one of my kids' accounts in Microsoft Family. It let me remove a handful of sites from the list, but there are 10 or so that
    clicking the "remove" button does nothing.

    Can someone from Microsoft explain to me how to fix this?
