    How do I disable parental controls without having access to the parent account?


    My current computer used to be a school computer, and it had parental controls on it. I can't contact the organization to remove them, so that's not an option. The board had chrome disabled, so that's not even an option.

    :)

    How do I disable parental controls without having access to the parent account?

    Parental controls

    I am trying to access some basic features in Forza Horizon 3, but I can't because it says parental controls are blocking them.

    How do I disable parental controls??

    I never had a parent account so I don't know where the restrictions are coming from.
