    We can check our screen time by going to system > power and battery. Is that screen time the combined screen time of the multiple users? And dear Microsoft, can we have screen time tracking systems for the past month and for each app too? Please and thank you!

    Screen time does not prevent usage

    1. I have screen time set up for my sons account under Microsoft Family Safety. The limits are set, the devices are connected. On his computer, he is not an administrator.
    2. I have contacted Microsoft about the problem and their only recommendation was removing his profile and reinstalling it on all devices, that is done.
    3. When he is gaming, he hits his screen time limit. He gets an alert, he requests more screen time. I deny his request. Nothing happens. He keeps playing. Screen time does not end his usage.
    4. I have it set at 1.5 hours and then on the exact same screen where I set screen time, the usage report shows he was on for 2 hours.
    5. I also have the time set for when devices should work. That also does nothing. He is able to log on whenever he wants.

    Timing/recording Windows 10 usage

    hi, please can anyone suggest any other tools that track time based on keyboard/mouse activity and report to show usage?

    I don't need some super clever cloud based employee monitoring solutions with screenshots & messaging etc. I've found there are many but they are both overkill for my needs, and probably over intrusive. I just want to track time usage on a single windows 10 desktop; I'm pretty technical so if it's a script or something that doesn't have a pretty GUI that could be fine too.

    Thank you

    Hi Anonymous

    You should be able to use the Screen Time feature to do so. Here are the steps to set it up:
