    Minecraft launcher keeps asking for parental permission after already providing it

    I wanted to allow my son to play multiplayer for which it seems he needed to be added to my Microsoft Family account. After I did that, Minecraft keeps asking to "email for permission" in order to be launched. I've provided that permission numerous times, but it still asks for permission every time and he is unable to launch Minecraft at all.

    I've tried all of the following without success:

    - Removing and readding the Minecraft permission

    - Removing him from my family account

    - Changing him to an organizer

    - Removing and reinstalling Minecraft

    - Resetting Windows (reinstalling)

    At the moment he is unable to play a game we paid for. Please help. There doesn't seem to be any way we can fix this and regain access to the game.

    Unable to play game on Steam error: Parental controls have blocked the access

    Hello,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    As you are facing issue with the parental control, while trying to play a game on steam, I suggest you verify
    date of birth. Login to
    account.live.com, edit your profile and check if the date of birth is correct.

    Please refer this article
    Parental consent and Microsoft child accounts
    and click on show all, refer section
    I'm an adult but I'm being asked for parental consent. What do I do?


    Hope it helps.

    Regards,
