    how do you disable my family?

    Hi stephaniewu,



    Thank you for posting on the forum.



    According to your post, you would like to disable My Family in order to purchase apps on your phone.



    As TomBrad95 has said there is not a way to disable the My Family settings. In some cases, you might be incorrectly asked to set up My Family. If you are over the legal adult age in your country and are being asked to set up My Family, then please try these
    steps:



    If you are still asked to set up My Family after trying the above steps, then you are under the legal adult age and will need to use My Family.



    Kind Regards,

    How to turn off Family safety settings

    Hello Michael,

    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you are trying to remove the family safety settings. We will help you.

    I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps you regarding the
    family safety settings.

    Turn off family settings in Windows 10

    • To turn off family settings for a child in your family, sign in at account.microsoft.com/family. Then choose one of these
      options:
      • Remove them from family settings by choosing Remove, then selecting their account, then selecting
        Remove again. They’ll still be able to sign in to their PCs, but this will remove any family limits that you set.
      • Or select them from the main family page, which will bring you to their Recent activity. If
        Activity reporting is turned On, turn it
        Off.
        Then repeat for the other settings pages (Web browsing, Apps, games & media, Screen time, Purchase & spending), making sure that those switches are turned
        Off.

    Hope it helps. Keep us posted to help you better.
