    Microsoft Family Features


    So recently my family bought the Microsoft 365 family plan. Installation and sign-up went well, but for some time now I have been getting the infamous Microsoft Family Features pop-up every time I start my laptop. Yes, I've tried disabling it through Task Manager; yes, I've tried changing the age on my Microsoft account even though I'm 27 anyway; yes, I've tried leaving the family group and re-entering it; yes, I've even tried logging in through the pop-up, and the next time I started my laptop, it was still there; nothing worked.

    Hi,

    Microsoft Family Safety is a free parental monitoring app to help make it easier to keep your kids safe online. With Family Safety, you can give them some independence but still keep tabs on their computer activities. Family Safety allows you to:

    • See which websites your kids have visited, and which apps and games they’ve used
    • Block or allow websites, apps, games, or other content.
    • Limit the amount of time they can spend on the PC

    Since you never set up Microsoft family features on your computer, we suggest that you follow the steps on this

    link
    to turn off the family settings in Windows 10.

    Should you need further assistance, don't hesitate to get back to us.
