    Family Features Blocking Chrome on Adult Account

    Hello,

    Best that we could suggest here as an easy fix is to have the Family feature administrator remove your account from the list. Feel free to check out
    this link from our support website for steps on how to do so.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.

    How to I add an application to "Blocked apps & games" section of Microsoft Account, Family tab

    Hi,

    Blocking third-party browsers is an automatic side-effect of turning on the
    Block inappropriate websites     feature. To turn this feature on, follow these steps:

    • Login using the parent account of your Microsoft family
      here      .
    • Select your child's account.
    • Click Web browsing from the left pane, under Recent activity.
    • Switch Block inappropriate websites to On. The following description will appear:
      “To protect your child, we’ve only given them access to Microsoft Edge and Internet Explorer. All other commonly used browsers are blocked. If you want your child to have access to other browsers, go to Apps & games page under Blocked apps."

    After following these steps, all browsers except for Edge and Internet Explorer are automatically blocked.

    Let us know if you have any other concerns about Microsoft Family.

    FAMILY FEATURES BLOCKING BROWSERS

    Windows 10 Family Safety is blocking my browser!!!

    Can you confirm if you are out of the Family Safety feature on your parent's account on this
    link? If you've confirmed that you're no longer on the list of monitored child accounts, we suggest deleting the Family Safety folder. Here are the steps:

    • Press Windows key + E on your keyboard.
    • On the address bar, type this address C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Parental Controls and press
      Enter.
    • Delete all contents of the Parental Controls folder.
    • Restart and see if the issue is resolved.

    Let us know how it went for you.
