    Group games together for time limit


    I'm trying to set up time limits for games on my kids' account, and while I see how I can set individual time limits for each app, I was wondering if there was a way to set up a limit for a group of apps?

    For example, they have Roblox and Minecraft, and I would like to set a combined limit of 2 hours for both programs, such that if they spend 1 hour on Minecraft they will only be able to spend 1 hour on Roblox, or if they spend that hour on Minecraft they get no time on Roblox that day.

    Thanks for the assistance!

    :)

    Set Video Game Time Limit

    Hello, i have a young user which quite addicted to video games. Now i don't want to block the video games completely, and i also don't want to limit his computer usage time, as his school activity required using computer and internet a lot, i just want to
    put a time limit to a group of selected programs/games without hindering the usage of the computer or internet at all. Is there any feature on family safety or any third party that can do that? I am currently use
    Windows 10.

    Thank you for the attention
