  1. Windows 10 Family Account -- Deactivate access to inPrivate browsing


    I have a family account setup for Windows10 machines. I have the child's content option set to block specific websites for instance, youtube.com. But the child can open an inPrivate session, and that allows access to youtube.com.


    Is there a way, using the family controls, to disallow access to inPrivate browsing?

    :)

    Hi Josh,

    To better understand your concern about InPrivate browsing, we'd like to know the following:

    • If the family safety features of your Microsoft account are turned on. To check if your account is listed as a child's account, you can visit this

      link
      .
    • If you have multiple Microsoft accounts.

    We look forward to your response.

    Hi thanks for responding, when i click on the link it asks me if i want to add a child, so im guessing that is a no.

    and no I do not have multiple microsoft accounts.

    Thanks again

    Josh

    Windows 10 Family Account -- Deactivate access to inPrivate browsing

    inprivate browsing

    Thank you for the feedback, David. Generally, InPrivate browsing will not be active and need to be initiated manually. If
    InPrivate browsing opens when you try to launch Internet Explorer, you can try these steps to disable it:

    • Right-click on the Internet Explorer icon and click-on
      Properties
      .
    • Under Target, the path should be "C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe" (with the quotation marks.) If
      -inprivate is suffixed, removed it and click the OK button.

    Let us know how it goes.
