Windows 10: Microsoft family time broken on weekdays??

Let me get right to the chase. So i ran out of time, and asked for more. My parent account accepted it multiple requests and yet it still will not allow me to log in. I had this same exact problem last week, and the week before! But for some reason, weekends work... ALSO, please dont ask me to restart my pc, i was in the middle of coding something and it’d be a pain in the *ss to code it back up.

Microsoft Family Screen Time

Hi Laurel,

Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community forum.

This could happen when the child account fails to sync with the server. I suggest you to try the steps listed below and check if it works:

• Open
  File Explorer and navigate to the following location:
• C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Parental Controls
  
  
  Note:
  The above mentioned directory is hidden, copy and paste the same location on the search bar in the File Explorer to access it.
  
• Delete the contents in the
  \\settings directory of the Parental Controls folder.
  
• Reboot the machine to see if the issue persists.
  

If the issue persists, you may want to remove the child account from Microsoft family and add it again.

• To know how to remove an account from Microsoft Family, refer:

Microsoft family weekends and weekdays change

Hi there,

In Microsoft family as a parent, I'm setting different restrictions for weekdays than weekends, unfortunately it shows weekends as Sat-Sun where the weekend in Saudi is Fri-Sat.

I wasn't able to find a way to change the weekends and weekdays from the default Sat-Sun, any ideas?

Please note that on the kids computers and my computer calendars all set as weekends to be Sat-Sun, but still in the family.microsoft.com website it still showd on the restrictions control different weekends.
