Windows 10: How to gift points to family members? It doesn't work for me.

I can't gift points to my family members...

:)

 

Windows Hello won't work for a family member account

• Have you applied a group policy? If yes, you may check this article on
  how to resolve the issue.
  • No group policy applied
• Were there any changes made on your computer prior to the issue (e.g., updates, software installation)?
  • It’s a new computer. As soon as I created my administrator account I created a family account for my wife. Everything else works on her account but Windows Hello does not work (the camera).
• What is the exact error message?
  • I attempted to attach screen shots of each step we have gone through but it would accept Word or PDF files. Is there another way I can get them to you?
• To make sure that we have not missed on anything, what troubleshooting steps have you done so far to resolve this?
  • I deleted her family member account, created a PC account (with the same results), deleted the PC account and recreated the family member account. No luck with her Windows Hello.

There is a possibility that the family member account/profile that you have created is corrupted/damaged. We suggest that you try re-configuring the profile.
(Already did that)

 

How do we gift point to other family members?

Hi Evan,

I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Microsoft removed the option to gift points to family members a while ago, they have not made any official announcement about that or if that option will be returning, we just need to wait to see if it does come back, but for now, it is not available.
