  1. Microsoft family features notification


    I keep getting a bunch of notifications for microsoft family features and needing to "Sign in so you don't miss out". I've attached the full notification below.

    Microsoft family features notification 57ce8a1e-4cfb-4355-a4b9-afbde1f60621?upload=true.png


    Not sure why I'm getting these; I don't remember ever signing up for anything related to microsoft family, and, being well above the age of a child, am not sure why I would need to send my parents a request to have more screen time or visit certain apps and sites lmao.


    I've looked at the family options in settings, which just redirect me to the microsoft.com/family page, where there are no family groups, and the only option that I'm given is to create a family group.


    At this point, the notification pops up every time I log in, and I'm about to delete the C:\Windows\SystemApps\ParentalControls folder, which is where the microsoft family features notifications are coming from.


    If there is a real solution to this, I would greatly appreciate it.

    :)

    Hi there, thanks for your question.

    Try the steps outlined in the below Microsoft Support article to disable Microsoft Family features:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/402770...

    See if you can remove every member from your family. This should disable notifications and the entire Family feature from your Microsoft account.

    Please let me know if you need further support! Thanks!
