    How do I set different screen time limits for different devices?


    I'm running Windows 10 and Family Safety. My son uses a desktop for gaming and a laptop for schoolwork. I would like to set his desktop to have limited screen time hours, say 2 hours in the evening. But the laptop I want him to have access to throughout the day. How do I set different screen time schedules for different devices?Both devices are registered in his Family Safety account, but they are forced to have the same screen time schedule.

    Screen shut down at different intervals

    Thank you Ron; but that is the first thing I did when I installed the operating system. That was the fist thing I did on any operating system I installed. Even though, I did it again just to make sure; no luck. Besides, the screen "shuts off" at different
    times. I believe it a Malware program. Any suggestions?

    I appreciate your help,

    David

    Screen shut down at different intervals

    Hi David,

    This has something to do with the Display settings of your Computer.

    To set when the Turn off the Display, follow the steps below:

    • Click the Start button on the desktop, then select Settings.
    • Open PC and devices (or System).
    • Select Power and sleep.
    • Under Screen, choose Never from the dropdown list.

    This should prevent your screen from turning off at different intervals.

    Regards.

    Screen-time limit on multiple devices

    Thanks. So am I right in thinking that, as of now, there is no solution to my problems?
