    URL access loophole / Issue


    Hi


    I wonder if anybody can help or if they know this is a know issue. Been using Microsoft Family for my kids and noticed there is a flaw in how it may block a certain URL & allows the child to access.


    e.g.


    Blocked URL

    www.youtube.com


    Allowed URL - Specific Youtube video URL

    www.youtube.com/xyz


    Now, as expected when my child browses to www.youtube.com - the default permission request pops up and blocks the URL - All good.


    Here comes the flaw;

    when you browse the allowed explicit URL to the YouTube video, the YouTube loads as expected however, I can now use the YouTube search box to search for other YouTube videos and although the URL changes the videos are still allowed thus giving the child full access to YouTube even though YouTube is blocked.


    Hope this makes sense and hope this can be fixed/corrected or I'm I doing something wrong?

    :)

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.

    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.

  4. URL access loophole / Issue

    Quick Access bar

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    We would be glad to help you with the issue you are facing today. I understand the difficulty.

    Remove items from Quick access.

    I would suggest you to follow the below steps.

    • Right click on the file or folder.
    • Select the option “unpin from the quick access”


    To pin items to an item already on the quick access bar.

    Follow the below steps.

    I would suggest you to create folder in the desktop screen & place all the files or folder which need to pin to the quick access.

    • Open the quick access.
    • Select the Desktop option.
    • Right click on the folder & select the option “pin to quick access”


    Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.
