    Family Safety not working


    When my son logs in Windows he is given two options :

    • use pin code
    • use Microsoft password

    When he uses the pin code however the family safety is not working.

    Any suggestions?

    :)

    Family Safety doesn't work on power saver

    I tried everything you suggested, but nothing worked. I think the problem is that power saver restricts running Family Safety and other apps from running in the background. I can manually enable an app in the Settings, but there's no such app like Family
    Safety in the list.
