    Microsoft family features blocking installation


    I'm attempting to install some old software for which I just have an .bin file. When I click on the setup.exe I get a message

    Ask for permission
    You'll need to ask an adult in your family if you can use:

    Setup Launcher

    I am the administrator, I am the adult in the family and when I Ask by email I get an error. I've tried logging in on my kids account and that does send me an email, I approved the use of Setup Launcher but it still doesn't do anything. How do I get past this?

    :)

    Family Features Blocking Chrome on Adult Account

    Hello,

    Best that we could suggest here as an easy fix is to have the Family feature administrator remove your account from the list. Feel free to check out
    this link from our support website for steps on how to do so.

    Let us know if you need further assistance.
