Windows 10: Can I block social media sites from single machine only for a single user?

Hi I have been tasked to block social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok from a user at my workplace. I have tried the hosts.txt file in the windows\system32\driver\etc folder, I released IP flushed DNS and renewed IP config and still did not manage to block those sites. I also cleared the catch within the browser. Is it possible to block websites from the local machine?is there another way of achieving this? the PC is within the domain network.I hope my question is clear if not let me know I will rephrase. :Thank you

:)

 

How to block single user on company network from accessing social media i.e Facebook, twitter, Instagram....?

Hi

I have a question I have been instructed to block social media websites for one user in our company, is there a way to do this locally on a PC?

Is there a way you can apply the social media blocking to selected users but not the entire company as some will need to use social media for marketing?

Thank you in advance for your reply
