How to reset child account password in family safety on win. 10 ?

Hello Earl,



If you are logged in using an Administrator Account and you have set up the child accounts using the same account, then you should be able to change their passwords.



You can follow these steps:

• Press Windows key + X and select Control Panel.
• Click on Family Safety and select the child account.
• On the left navigation pane, select Change Password.
• Follow the prompted instructions and check if the password is changed.

Let us know how it goes.

 

How to reset child account password in family safety on win. 10 ?

I'm also having issues with this.

There is NO OPTION to change the password, either in Windows 10 or in the family management area of the online account preferences. My son is disabled, and has issues with memory, but proudly remembered his password until recently, when he changed it. He's
just turned 7 years old. Why am I not permitted to clearly manage the account?

When I go to Settings -> Account -> Family & Other People there are no options.

The Family Safety control panel does not exist on my computer.

The Microsoft account management feature connected to my son's email address (which we have set up with his school to manage schoolwork this year) does not have any obvious option to reset the password.

So... again, how do we do this?

Thanks but the steps above aren't accurate;

2. There is no Family Safety option within the Control Panel
