    Microsoft Store block on downloads except for Facebook!


    Ok - so I have changed the Microsoft setting to None which means my child can not download anything from the Microsoft store.
    On checking this, by going into his user account that I have set up for him, I find that all downloads are being blocked - paid and free - except facebook - which actually is one of the main one's I do want blocked and unavailable fro free download? I am sure I'm not doing something wrong because all others are blocked... so why is facebook still allowed? Any clues anyone please?


    :)

    Serious issues with Data usage on my Lumia 820

    Look i've already done most of that, except leaving data off.... I may aswell have a dumb phone then.

    I leave it on for facebook messages.... My phone syncs emails every 15mins and also everything is blocked in the background.... there is no way it's my fault that the phone just randomly downloads 213MB
