Windows 10: Child removed from family he still blocked

Hi,


I added a child on my family group then I removed but he still cannot access to apps that were monitored.


Any help?

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.

 

Family Safety - Block Child from removing themselves

Thought I'd follow up on this, since MS hasn't really been responding in the other threads with anything useful.

In Windows 10, when a child signs in, there is a family safety pop-up that comes up in the lower right corner of the screen. If they click this, it bring the child to the family safety web-site. At this point, they can easily remove themselves from the
family and family safety.

Is there a way to block this? This is a huge loophole.

I've switched to a 3rd party family safety product, but might switch back to Windows 10 if MS fixes this. Also, this isn't an issue with me, or my pc. This is an issue with the product.

Doing a search on "child remove family safety, brings up a bunch of people with the same issue.
