    I'm trying to delete any unnecessary files and such to open up some storage, I saw that "other people" takes up 29.9 GB and none of my family members use this computer used to be an office computer but became my person one but I don't have an option to remove the accounts from my device. It just shows "block". I'm not trying to kick them from the group as a whole, I just don't want all that space being taken up by people who haven't touched the computer in over 6 years

    :)

    broken "family member needs to sign in"

    Parental controls stopped working. Family.Microsoft.com has alert: "Your family member needs to sign in to their Windows 10 device AngLaptop2014 for family features to work.

    But the "how to fix this" says

    • Select Accounts > Family & other people
    • Under Your family, select your family member, then select Allow
    • Have your family member sign in with their Microsoft account if asked to
    And the steps don't apply. The account is already allowed, and there is no option to change that.

    Now what???

  3. Problem with family member account

    I have the following message on a child family members account

    Your family member needs to sign in to their Windows 10 device LAPTOP-%%%%%%5 for family features to work.

    The fix it says it to

    start, settings, accounts, family and other people

    under your family, select family member and set to allow

    Have your family member sign in with their Microsoft account if asked to.

    when I follow the above there is not an option to Allow but their is n option to "Can sign in"

    The user is already set to this.

    The user logs into their account with a pin but the message still shows on the family member account?

    Please advise

    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)
