Windows 10 Kids Security

Hi,

 

Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community, we appreciate your interest in Windows 10. 

 

I understand the inconvenience that you are facing on Windows 10, we will help you with this issue.



In order to assist you better, I would like to know the following queries:

• Is the issue confined to a particular user account?
• What type of account have you logged into? Is it a Microsoft account or local account?
• Have you logged in as an Administrator?
• Do you get any error message when you try to restrict your kid to use computer?
  

To turn on Family Safety, you or at least one designated parent needs an
administrator account; the kids you choose to monitor each need a standard user account.



To check whether the account you are logged in is administrator or not please follow the steps below:

• Press Windows + R key.
• Type netplwiz and hit enter.
• See the account you are logged in with.

If you are not logged in as an administrator, I suggest you try logging in as administrator and check.



I would recommend you to reconfigure the Family Safety settings and check if it works.

You can refer link below to setup the account.

Set up your kids' accounts in Family Safety

Note: Applies to Windows 10.



Once that is setup, refer this link to setup the limits for the accounts.



Limit when and how your kids can use the PC

Hope this helps. Please respond if you have any further related query.



Thank you.

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
