    Family restrictions still apply after leaving.


    I am an adult who recently left my Microsoft family after getting my own computer for college work. However despite leaving the family my account is still being effected by Microsoft family limitations that prevent me from using other browsers or browsing freely, including several school sites that are restricted. How do I remove these restrictions from my account?

    :)

  2. Family settings applying after I leave the family

    1. I leave my family cause the screen time restrictions are set to low and my dad doesn't wanna increase it. So i leave the family, but the restrictions still apply on the computer. Then a few days later the icon that tells you when the computer locks itself
    disappears, but the same day the restrictions still lock the computer.

    2. No, i doesn't get any warnings or errors of any kind, just the mail that says "You left the family"

    Family restrictions still apply after leaving.

    Does leaving a Microsoft family get rid of time restrictions and content restrictions?

    Hi Alexander, when you leave a Microsoft Family all restrictions should then be lifted - that is the official line . . .

    Though the whole Microsoft Family feature is glitchy at the best of times
