    I want to remove my account from my family group. It is the ONLY account listed and I do not want this account showing up on my Windows login screen

    Unable to remove child account from Family

    I am the family organizer & there is just one member in the family besides me i.e. my child. I am unable to remove my child's (age: 11) account from family. It gives below error (after step 3).

    You can't remove Ami from the family. Family members under statutory age need an adult's consent to join a family group. Only the adult that granted consent for Ami can remove this family member. Ask the family organizer who granted Ami consent to remove Ami from the family group.


    Steps followed:

    1. Log into Microsoft Family Safety
    2. Select 3 dots on the top right of child's card & select "Remove from family group"
    3. A dialog appears for final confirmation. Select Remove.
    If I am the family organizer why can't I remove it?

    Why does it say "Only the adult that granted consent for Ami can remove this family member"? Who else other than me granted consent? How can I find it out?

    How can I remove my child's account from family?

    My child cannot remove herself from the family group as well. She logged into Microsoft Family Safety but doesn't see the option to exit the group. Actually, I want her to join a different family group but it's not allowed since she is already a member of a current family group. Until she leaves her current family group she can't join a new one.

    Cant remove an account from a family group.

    How do I COMLETELY remove a user from my Family group?

    Thank you Javier for getting back to me on this question.

    I went to the link that you suggested. The most applicable section was 'Add People to a home PC'.

    I used the procedure under "If you need to remove that person's sign-in information from your PC:".

    Step 1; Successful

    Step 2: There is no Remove option for that user; only Change Account Type and Allow

    I also clicked on the Manage Family Settings link and the were were no users listed other than me (this is expected since there are no other users other than me.

    I then restarted the computer and went through Step 1 again. The user was still under the Family group.

    Any other thoughts? Thanks.
