    Microsoft family not blocking chrome even when chrome is blocked


    I have tried to lock down my son's windows environment with Microsoft Family. I have blocked Chrome along with almost all the other apps. The only allowed browser is edge with only whitelisted sites allowed. This worked. However, recently I have caught him playing games on chrome. I can open chrome Even though it is blocked and it defaults to Bing which is not on my allowed list, but I know family does not control sites on Chrome. In this mode I can get to any site. Sometimes, if I then close chrome and reopen it, Chrone becomes locked. Othertimes, it suddenly leaves the site and Chrome becomes blocked. But he is clearly able to open chrome and play for an extended period of time. Any help is appreciated.

    :)

    That link doesn't work on Windows 10 Home and Microsoft Family is the biggest POS in the world. Created solely to block Google Chrome on Windows 10. What a sham!

    Microsoft Family is blocking Chrome

    I had originally set the filters to block Chrome. But then I went in and changed it to allow Chrome. But it still will not allow it. Everytime my child tries to open Chrome it prompts her to ask for permission. I grant permission and then we start the whole
    process all over again. It never does actually allow her to access Chrome. I have removed her from the family list and added her bk in. I have checked the Chrome permissions and I just CANT seem to figure out why it will not allow Chrome?

    Pls help

    My daughter needs to do online school and needs Chrome to access the program.

    Can you please help with this issue.

    Google Chrome - Always Blocked

    In Microsoft Family Setting, under "Content Restrictions", Google Chrome was originally part of the list of "Always Blocked". It has been removed. How do I get Google Chrome back on the list?
