Windows 10: Block inappropriate websites

Hi, I recently bought a new laptop for my daughter to help with home schooling during the Corona virus lock down. I specifically picked a new Windows 10 S Mode model for the safety and security. I spent a considerable amount of time setting up family users with ages etc, so that my daughters could use the features advertised.


After a few days I have come to the conclusion that the family control software it is a pile of s??t. Excuse my French.


I have managed to get the time restrictions working so at least I can make sure I am about when the device is being used.


Has anyone managed to get content filtering of websites working as so far I have not seen any restrictions? If so how.


I have not tried to block specific sites as I don't want to hunt down every site that may contain inappropriate content


Very disappointing so far and I am seriously considering taking the laptop back, as this uncontrolled access for a 5 and 8 year old is totally inappropriate.


Thank in advance

:)

 

Blocking Inappropriate Websites

I checked the box to block inappropriate websites for my daughter's user account and then when I opened Edge in her account I saw a number of inappropriate articles. The entertainment section alone had a number of inappropriate articles. Is it possible
to block the Edge news articles as well?

"Block inappropriate websites" is not working at all for child

Hello,

I created new microsoft account and created a child account under family, paid 0.50 and its verified and child account has been created successfully.

I have windows 10 laptop. Added microsoft account info under accounts.

Now I want to block all\any the adult stuffs\search while using internet when child logs in to Windows using that account.

Under family, content restriction, I enabled "Block inappropriate websites" option and also enabled option "Block inappropriate apps, games & media" and set child
age as 10 under that option.

Then to check, I logged off from my windows account and logged in back to windows using child account email and password.

Then I opened chrome and searched for adult sites, google search everything, then I tried going to any site and I was able to go to any of such site. I want to even restrict search of such things.

My question is, even though I have "Block inappropriate websites" ON, why is it not blocking anything and why child user is able to search or see anything on browser ?

Thanks in advance
