    The birth date is greyed out and I can't change it, help?!


    I made the computers birth date jan 1 of 2025 and now it's greyed out and I can't change it. Didn't know it was so important now my computer is babysitting everything I do that is age restricted, what a terrible feature. How do I get the B-day changed or silence the babysitter?

  2. Change my date of birth on microsoft profile

    Hi Alex,

    To change the date of birth on your Microsoft Account, you can follow the steps below:

    • Sign in to
      Your info
      on the Microsoft account website.
    • Click Edit your personal info.
    • Select the correct date of birth, and then select Save.

    If the birth date on a Microsoft account says that it belongs to a child, there are different steps to take in regions that regulate what children can do online. You can check this
    link for more information.

    Let us know how it goes.

  3. Changing date of birth on Microsoft account

    I accidentally changed my date of birth on my Microsoft account to my 6 year olds when attempting to set up an account for him. I need to change it back to my date of birth but it won’t let me and it’s all greyed out.

    Please help.
