    With Microsoft Family, how can a child view their remaining screentime?


    My child wants to be able to plan ahead in using their allotted screen time set using Microsoft Family. Is there a way they can view the remaining screen time on their device? It would be great if they could see a countdown timer. Thanks

    :)

    Windows 10 Family screentime still restricting people no longer in the family

    Hi Darrell,

    With regard to your query, we suggest that you follow the steps below to completely remove the Microsoft account family safety feature for your son's account.

    • From a web browser, go to
      http://account.microsoft.com/family       and sign in with the Microsoft account of an adult in the family.
    • To remove a child, choose Remove at the top of the section labeled
      Select a child to view or edit their settings.
    • Select the person you want to remove from the family.
    • Select the Remove button that appears when you've chosen the person to remove.

    Cannot add child to family

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft community. I regret the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you.

    I suggest you to refer the following steps to check if that helps.

    Add your child's Microsoft account to your family.

    1. Sign in at account.microsoft.com/family.

    2. Go to Select a child to view or edit their settings and
    select Add    .

    3. Enter the email address your child uses to sign in to Windows 10 and
    select Send invite.

    Your child will need to accept the invitation from their email address.

    Once your child has been added to your family with a Microsoft account, you’ll be able to set up appropriate website and app and game restrictions for their age, set PC time limits, and review their recent activity. Their settings will apply to any Windows
    10 device that they sign in to.

    I also suggest you to refer the below link for more information.

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/set-up-family-after-upgrade

    Hope this helps. If the issue remains unresolved, please get back to us with more information and we’d be happy to help.

    Microsoft family- no longer monitoring child's activity

    Hello,

    There are several reasons why you are having this issue. One of the reasons could your account might not be configured properly. To resolve this, let us reconfigure your Family Safety feature:

    Remove child account

    • From a web browser, go to http://account.microsoft.com/family and sign in with the Microsoft account of an adult in the family.
    • To remove a child, choose Remove at the top of the section labeled Select a child to view or edit their settings.
    • Select the person you want to remove from the family.
    • Select the Remove button that appears when you've chosen the person to remove.

    Add child account to your family

    • Sign in at account.microsoft.com/family.
    • If this is your first time setting up a family, select Add a child.

      If you've already added child accounts to your family, go to Select a child to view or edit their settings and then select Add.
    • Enter your child's email address and select Send invite. If your child doesn't have an email address, select Create a new email address for your child and follow the instructions on the screen.

    Update us with the result so we can further help you.
