Windows 10: Grant Extra Time - but then computer fails to lock

We use Windows Family for Windows 10. When our kids reach the end of their scheduled time, they click "request more time" - which generates an email and allows us to approved extra time. The computer will then continue to stay unlocked. However, we have found that it is now failing to lock at the end of the new extended time (for example, we grant an extra hour - but then our child is simply able to say on their machine well past that hour - most times indefinitely). The only way to get it to lock is to log onto the actual web site, and adjust the time limits in some way, which seems to "reset" things.


Why, though, won't the computer simply lock at the end of the extra time we've granted?

Computer is failing to upgrade

Hi Michelle,

Most of the time, failed Windows updates occur due to damaged Windows updates component or third-party programs that prevents your computer to install the updates. For better assistance, we'll be needing additional information:

• Is there an error code displayed when the updates failed to install?
• If possible, can you send us a screenshot?

As an initial troubleshooting step, we suggest that you run the troubleshooter for Windows updates and try installing it again. For your reference, check this article on where to download and run the
Windows Update Troubleshooter.

We're looking forward to your reply.
