  1. Microsoft Family keeps telling me to sign in to my account but I already am


    Every time I go to open an application, a window opens saying "Sign in so you don't miss out, you need to sign back into your Microsoft account do you can send your parent requests when you want more screen time or need permission for certain apps and sights." My Microsoft account is listed as an adult so I don't know why these pop-ups have happened. Cortona also asks me to sign in but I'm already in my account. I've tried signing in and out and I've tampered with the family settings but nothing has worked.

    :)

I have tried as suggested here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2475837/en-us#step0x83cf1202 but as my Microsoft account is not shown, I cannot do step 6.
