    Microsoft Family Features popup spam


    I keep getting this popup that asks me to log in to Microsoft Family Features so "I don't miss out". It doesn't matter how many times I keep signing in, the window keeps popping up seemingly every half hour or so. How do I make this go away?


    I've seen other threads on the forum with people who have the same problem, but they get told to leave their Microsoft Family with this link attached for instructions: Remove members from your Microsoft family. But I don't want to unlink my account from my family. I get my Office apps and 1Tb storage in OneDrive because I'm linked to my family.


    Is there any other way to get rid of these constant popups?


    P.S. These popups just started to appear randomly, without me changing any Windows settings or family settings. I also keep getting logged out of all my other Microsoft apps like the aforementioned Office apps and also my Outlook mail. Every time I re-open a Microsoft program I have to log in again, it's incredibly annoying.

    :)

    Microsoft family features - being spammed by popups telling me to sign in

    Hello,

    Recently, I have been getting a popup from Microsoft Family Features telling me to sign in. It has been spamming me with it every couple minutes.

    Any fixes? I have tried ending the "Family Safety Monitor" task via the Task Manager but that does not work. When I do click sign in, it gives me a "Please wait.." and it goes on for a very long time.
