  1. Restricting time usage for adult accounts on MY computer


    Has there been any updates to this situation? I have other adults in my household that I want to restrict how many hours they are on my computer. I can't create a child account for them because I can't delete their adult account. All of their files will be deleted unless I can find and copy all of their data. I can't guarantee that I can find/copy all of their files. I need a simple way for the administrator to select how many hours, what time of day and what days of the week ANY user can have access to my computer.

    :)

    I put web browsing safety restrictions on my adult account but it is blocking too much. How do I remove it?
