Windows 10: Child account cannot access Chrome after it is unblocked

I want to set up a child account that can access Chrome. I removed Chrome from the "Always blocked" apps list. That did not work and the Child account received an "Ask for permission" pop up when I tried to open Chrome. I clicked Ask by email and I approved the request from the Adult account. I restarted the Child computer and it still cannot access Chrome. How do I allow the Child account to use Chrome?

Google Chrome blocked cannot unblock

Whenever I try to open Google Chrome it says Microsoft family features, ask permission. Even though chrome has been unblocked on the parent account it still wont unblock for the child account. does anyone know why it is not unblocking and why Microsoft
family features is not working?

 

Block Google Chrome for Child

I have 5 kids to setup content restrictions for. Though I love that Microsoft gives the power to have the safety features it does, the process is RIDICULOUS if you are doing it for more than 1 child!!!

I attempted to setup my 3 younger kids to only have access to a couple of specific websites, but no other sites. During that process I removed Google Chrome from the blocked apps list. What I did not know was that I had to use Microsoft Edge (one of the
worst browsers ever) to use the feature that only allows certain sites. So now Google Chrome is no longer a blocked app, but yet the site has no way to just add it back.

I looked up how to block an app and was SHOCKED by the official info from Microsoft. See Below. Basically your kid has to use an app before you can add it to the blocked list. Doesn't that defy the purpose of having safety features for a child?

Besides... I used my child's account and opened Chrome, yet it still DID NOT show up in their activity list in order to block it. NOW WHAT?

FROM MICROSOFT

Blocking specific apps is possible with the Microsoft Account's Family Safety Feature. To block a specific application on your child's account, it is a requirement that the app must be used by your child, so that it will appear in under the Recent Activity
list. For your child's security, you can log in as the child and launch the app to satisfy this requirement.

Follow these steps to successfully block specific applications:

1. Visit the Microsoft Family website and then sign in your Microsoft Account.
2. Click the account of the child that you want to block from using an app.
3. Select Recent Activity.
4. Click to ensure that Activity Reporting is turned on.
5. Scroll down and look for Apps & Games.
6. Choose the apps that you want to block on your child's account.
7. Click Block to block usage of the app.
