  1. Share store acquisition with the family


    HelloI have a family set up in Microsoft me+my son, each with Microsoft account and sharing the same device/laptop. I have also Family Safety set up for him with some limitations - for games is the 16 years limit. I purchased on my account from Microsoft Store the game Age of Empires. I want to share it with my son, so he is able to play it from its account.How can I do that?Thank you

    :)

    Share store acquisition with the family

    Can't find a purchased app on a family member log on

    Hello Lisa,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    One of the many benefits of having a Microsoft account is a family group, which gives you access to family features and Settings. To share an application on a different account, kindly follow the steps listed below and check if it works:

    • Initially, sign in to the child’s account on the computer and login to Microsoft Store using the Microsoft account that was used to purchase the game.
    • After logging in to Store, under the Microsoft Account you will see the list of
      Purchased Apps which can be installed for the signed in user.
    • Open Settings and select Your Account, click on
      Sign out option which would return the Store Settings to revert to the user account.

    Additional Information: You may refer the article on
    Sharing Windows 10 Store Apps with your Family for further
    information.

    Regards,
