    1 of my 2 children's profiles works correctly with content restrictions


    I can only get 1 out of the 2 of my children's profiles to work correctly for content restrictions. I have them both set up the same but the one will not block anything. I have all of the browsers, except Microsoft Edge, blocked, yet he can still go into every other browser. I have specific sites block, but he can go into all of them no problem. I have removed and added the sites over and over again. I have recreated his profile as well. My computer doesn't need any updates and it hasn't done any updates since I created these. I'm using windows 10. Any suggestions?

    :)

    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?

    How to restrict children from downloading apps on the computer?

    Hi,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    I understand how frustrating it could be when the features don’t work properly. We will look into this for you.

    There are two types of accounts that can be used to log into the computer i.e. a Local account and a Microsoft account. Local account can be an Administrative account or a Standard account. If your children are using a Local Administrative account
    then, they will have full access of the computer and will be able to download applications and install them.

    If you are not comfortable with providing your credit card details, I suggest creating a Standard account for your children. Having a Standard account will not allow them to download any content or install any games or applications except from Microsoft
    Store. Please refer the steps in the article
    Create a local user or administrator account in Windows 10
    to create a Local account on the computer.

    If your children are using Microsoft account, you can add them as a Family member in Microsoft Family, this way you will be able to manage the content that your children can access on the internet. Please follow the steps from

    Add members to your family group to add your children to Microsoft Family.

    Please refer the steps in the article
    Set content restrictions on Windows 10 and Xbox One
    to restrict the content and check if that helps.

    Hope it helps.

    Please reply with the status of the issue, we will be glad to help you further.

    Microsoft Family shared content restriction

    I've tried to search for this subject, but was unable to find any meaningful information.

    I have four children setup and for the web browsing content restriction, we have it setup that they are only allowed access to websites listed in the "Only Allowed" list (whitelist). What I would like to do is manage one list for all my children. Is there
    a way to share the "Only Allowed" list among other children in the family?
