  1. Sign out of child account on local account


    I created a local account and on the windows store I signed in as a child account, which ended up changing my local account to use the child account. I now can't use xbox gamepass and when I go into settings there isn't an option to sign out of the account. How do I sign out of the account without removing it from the family or changing the account age to an adult?edit: the child account was removed from the family yet I still need permission from a parent to access the xbox app.

    :)

  2. Local account installation question


    I'm fairly certain that Skip this step was available in 10.0.130 - the workaround in Step 20 (back button) is no longer required.

    The currently known, as of 10.0.130, ways to create a Local account sign-in are
    • Skip this step at the MS account creation phase
    • No Internet connection during the install
    • static IP (post# 2 by Fragment) - New (to me anyway)

    Can a local user be changed to a child account?

    Windows 10 Home
    ver 1909

    Hello,

    I'm trying to see if there's a way to change a local account (standard user) to a child account so it can be managed in the Microsoft Family?

    I tried to follow the steps here https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/...1-c8f8cca1d52f

    but there's no option for "family and other users".

    They do not have Microsoft accounts. Do I need to basically create a new child account at Windows setup?

    Any assistance appreciated.

  4. Sign out of child account on local account

    Merge local child account with Microsoft account?

    Hi,

    We apologize for the inconvenience.

    Kindly follow the steps.

    1. Login to your child's local account.

    2. Press Windows key and go to Settings > Account > Your Account > Sign-in with a Microsoft Account.

    3. Enter your child's Microsoft email and password and click Next.

    4. Now enter your child's old local account password.

    5. Follow the on-screen instructions.

    This will not remove any data from your child's account, instead connect your child's Microsoft Account to their respective local account. Make sure you add your child to the family from accounts.live.com

    Hope this helps. Please respond if you have further related queries.

    Regards,
