  1. Where is "content restrictions" to require approval for all downloads?


    I am trying to enable restrictions for my son so he needs approval to download ANYTHING. It says to go to "content restrictions" but I cannot find it. I want to make it so he cannot download a single app without me approving it. Please let me know how to do it.

    Parental Approval Required?????

    Hi All

    help needed.

    I have set up child accounts for the kids as we are going on holiday and wont have internet access.

    I put £25 on the eldests account so that she can download some films and tv shows to download onto her tablet.

    Every time she wants to buy something it says You need Parental Approval for this.

    I removed the restrictions (temporarily) and it STILL asks for parental approval.

    If I click the 'allow' option on my laptop when I get the message it takes me directly to MY account where I have to purchase the content.

    AM I doing something wrong or cant kids purchase kids rated video content from the store?

    Thanks

    Microsoft Family shared content restriction

    Thanks for the response, but this has nothing to do with what I'm asking. I know how to set content restriction for each of my children, but it becomes tedious for me to have to maintain 4 different content restriction "Only Allowed" list when that list
    will be the same for all 4 children. Is there a way to share that list or export/import the list among the children within the family?

    Microsoft Family content restrictions not updating

    Hi,

    I have (as parent) added a few websites to the 'Always blocked' list on the 'content restriction' section of my Microsoft Family account. This only seem to apply to the computer where I edited the online 'content restrictions' list. On other computers,
    where I have accounts for my kids, those pages are still accessible. The computer doesn't seem to be synchronising with the online setting. How do I fix this please?
