    Hi,This is Simon and I am new to this community. My question is about Microsoft Family Accounts. My son complaints he is being logged out a few minutes early everyday. I set his time limit to 9:30 pm every night, but he got logged out like 9:28 pm yesterday as I observed him. I appreciate any inputs or suggestions. Thank you.Simon

    :)

    sign into microsoft account glitch

    Hi Micheal,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    • Is this the only account on the computer?
    • Was this account upgraded from previous version of Windows?

    It looks like you are using a local account. I suggest you follow these steps:

    • Click on search in taskbar and type account.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Now, under Your account, click on Sign in with Microsoft account instead.
    • Enter your Local account password for confirmation and then follow the screen instruction.
    • Enter User name credentials for your the new Microsoft account and click OK.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards
