    Microsoft Family Safety Issue: Asking For Permission to View Website When There is No...


    When I try to go on some websites, it says "You'll need to ask to use this webiste"; and it has a button to click on "Ask Now". It won't let me access the website, which is odd because there are no parents or family members connected to my computer. There are no other devices connected with Microsoft Family Safety. How I remove this restriction? How does this glitch get removed? It isn't allowing me to access basic websites when I don't use this application at all.

    :)

  3. Family Safety issues

    Hi,

    Microsoft family features (includes family safety features formerly known as
    Microsoft Family Safety), is a free set of features available on Windows 10 PC and Mobile that is bundled with the Windows 10 operating system.
    Please ensure that the parent email account is set as an administrator on the child's laptop. Once done, you may follow the steps below to properly manage the settings on the Family Safety website:

    • On the Start screen, type Family Safety.
    • Click on Settings.
    • Click the Family Safety icon.
    • On the bottom part of the window, click Manage settings on the Family Safety website. Your default browser will direct you to the Family Safety website.
    • Sign in using the parent account.
