    Computer has a new "parent lock" on it

    Okay so all I wanted was to play on the Xbox one but it had an account of my step brother on it and just to play on the stupid thing I needed to get permission from his account just to make one myself, and then all the games needed installing blah blah not
    worth it topic for another day, anyway I get back to my laptop and now I cant even use the internet on chrome which I use all the time because it has a new "parent lock" on it...I am 17 with my own account on everything and never have had any kind of locks
    on anything for any reason, and now I cant even use my Chrome which is literally what I use my laptop for at all, I cant even open chrome because I need to get "permission" from my same age step brothers account which I cant do because I cant contact him.
    I don't have any parent accounts and I shouldn't and I cant even remove it meaning I cant even use my laptop because using Explorer makes me want to rip my eyes out with how unbearably slow it is. How do I get this removed because there is no reason of any
    kind I should have a parent lock from my step brothers account when my ACTUAL parents have never once made me have a parent lock.

    Give me back my internet access for the love of god I have work to be getting on with.

    Kind Regards

    Ben M

    Random Auto-Locking of Computer Screen

    Nobody suggested checking out Event Viewer?

    When your computer randomly locks, search for, and open: Event Viewer

    Under Windows Logs, Check out:
    • Application
    • Security, and
    • System

    See if you can find something that states anything that could be related to your computer locking. The newest events are listed at the top of each section, so finding an event log would be pretty easy to find. Hopefully we can find what is causing the computer to lock.
