  1. I can't leave my Microsoft Family...


    So, I'm trying to friend my bestie on Minecraft but, my brother jokingly put parental controls on my account when he made it. So, I can't friend people without permission. A while back, he lost his Microsoft account due to a hacker so now he cant remove me from the family and I can't leave until I'm 18. I don't know what to do...

    :)

  2. I cannot leave my Microsoft family

    Hello ,

    Good to see you in Microsoft Community.

    Before leaving, family members and organizers should remove saved places and location alerts they would not like to remain in the group. Location alerts must be removed by the individual who set them for saved places to be deleted. Leaving or being removed from a family group will not delete Microsoft accounts.

    You can choose to opt out on your own or have a Family Safety organizer remove you from the family group:

    • To remove yourself from a family group
    1. Using a web browser, sign in to family.microsoft.com.
    2. Click next to your name and select Leave family group.
    3. Select Remove to confirm.
    • To remove another member from a family group
    1. Using a web browser, sign in to family.microsoft.com.
    2. Click next to the person's name and select Remove from family group.
    3. Select Remove to confirm.
    If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.

    Best Regards,

  3. Family Organizer Leaving Family Group

    Hello Lee Wilfert,

    Glad to see you in Microsoft Community.

    • If Mother was the administrator of the Family Group, you can exit the Family Group directly, and Mother will automatically become the Family Group organizer.

      If you want to stay in the Family Group, you need to rejoin, either as an administrator or as a regular Family Group member.

      Visit Getting started with Microsoft Family Safety for more details.
    • If Mother was already a member of the Family Group, you need to remove her from the Family Group, then add it again, and need to select "Administrator" when selecting the role.
    Meanwhile, you can dissolve the Family Group, and then let the new organizer send an invitation to re-establish the Family Group. Visit Leave family group or remove members (microsoft.com) for more details.

    If anything is unclear, please do not hesitate to let me know.



    Best Regards,
