    broken "family member needs to sign in"

    Parental controls stopped working. Family.Microsoft.com has alert: "Your family member needs to sign in to their Windows 10 device AngLaptop2014 for family features to work.

    But the "how to fix this" says

    • Select Accounts > Family & other people
    • Under Your family, select your family member, then select Allow
    • Have your family member sign in with their Microsoft account if asked to
    And the steps don't apply. The account is already allowed, and there is no option to change that.

    Now what???

    Family member login query

    Thank you Shawn 'Cmdr' Keene [MVP] for your assistance but I'm afraid I'm no further! I'll explain. When I go Settings/Accounts/ Manage my Accounts, the family member clearly shows up! So far so good! But when I try to switch user to login family
    member with say, Ctrl+Alt+Del, then I just get back to my login again. In other words I still can't login the family member.
