• Microsoft Family safety began just prevent Chrome GMail and Google Reader works on a child account - anyone know why?

  I am running Windows 7 and use parental control for several years.  My kids use Google Chrome with GMail and GoogleDrive for a lot of their homework.  In recent days on the child accounts Chrome slow down considerably with the message "establish a secure connection" when it starts for centuries, and then finally "Gmail App is not available".  After trying everything else (cookies, compensation, disabling extensions, historical disconnect account) I turned off parental control of Microsoft, and Chrome came back to life.  I've now changed the security settings to "block adult sites" to "warn on adult sites" and Chrome works very well.  I'm not happy to leave this setting to warn but need to at the moment, so that they can do their homework.  Is this a Microsoft problem or is there anything else I can try to solve it?

  Thank you

• How can I add child account?

  Trying to set up a new machine of Windows 8 and add two children.  I have a windows live Id, but cannot find anywhere to create an Id of windows for kids.

  I tried clicking on the various links in messages windows8 machine and my vista machine which forced me to install windows essentials.

  I never see an option to add a child.  I have never the option to prove that I am an adult by entering a credit card.

  I'm starting to think that buying a windows8 machine was a big mistake.

  How can I create an identification of phase of windows for my children so that they can get all the features of windows8?

  Hi RayVojtash,

  If you want to use the parental control to monitor computer and your child's online activity, it is normal that you will be notified by the system to install Windows Essentials, given that parental control is part of Windows Essentials.

  Please install the Windows parental control client on the computer that is using your child. You can download the installer from the link below:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/Essentials-home

  Once you have correctly installed the client, sign up for a child account to http://signup.live.comand reconfigure the client and your child's account on this computer. You can check the link below for detailed steps:

  Bind the child account for a Parent account

  If you have any other questions, please let us know.

  Hi Carl,
   
  Our support specialist notes that parental control is pre-installed as part of the control panel of Windows 8. Family safety no longer on installation of Windows Essentials on Windows 8. It is possible that there is something wrong with the installation on the computers in the child. To examine this, we ask that you provide us with screenshots showing the pages that follow below:
   
  1 Summary family and your devices (just connect on https://familysafety.microsoft.com, here is the list of all members of the family safety on the upper part and the computers involved below).
   
  2 settings for each child (click Edit settings under the name of child)
   
  3 series of screenshots showing the steps on how you configure the parental controls in Windows 8. (Did the same steps on how to configure a child account via the link?)
   
  Once you have ready screenshots, you can download them in the message that thread's private section.

• Can I turn off the notification which shows my child account is to be monitored which opens when my child llogs in on his account?

  I just activated the family security on my childs accounts. But when they connect, a window appears indicating that they are monitored, which at this stage, I don't want them to know. Can I turn off this box pop up somehow?

  Hi AmyJingst,

  There is currently no option in Family Safety to remove this message of notification on behalf of your child whenever they connect to their computer. If you think that it would be a convenient to have option to have an option to disable this notification, you can send it to Microsoft as a feature request.

• Cannot add child account to the parental control

  No matter how many times I add my child account to watch safely from the family, it does not work. The account appears in the list of monitored accounts and has the correct options I selected via the Family Safety however website when my child connects his account said "this account is not monitored by parental control.

  I deleted the computer AND the child of the Family Safety options site. I uninstalled and reinstalled parental control over the child's laptop computer but the account is STILL without oversight and shows via the control panel in Windows 7.

  When I log on the site of Family Safety on that account child watch the monitored account as 'white' "computername" when "in white" should be the account on the laptop.

  I am a computer professional and cannot understand it. What other options do I have?

  ANSWER FOUND!

  I found the answer on a long search of these forums...

  I had this problem because the computer name was the same as the name of my child's account. I changed the name of the computer to another one of his account on the computer and I was able to successfully activate Parental controls through parental controls on the computer.

  Hi Kittylane,

  Clarification, you want to see the list of child accounts you manage under parental control and their associated Windows Live ID? If this is the case, please do the following:

  1. sign in to the Family Safety website with the ID of the mother to http://fss.live.com.

  2. under the name of a member of the family who associated e-mail account you want to check, click on change settings. Search accounts for (name of family member). It will list the Windows Live ID associated with this account. Do this for the other members of the family. If the family member doesn't have a Windows Live ID, this means that there is only a Windows user account that is managed safely family.

  Thank you

• Recover Microsoft Live account

  I'm trying to reset my password / recover my Microsoft live account that I set up on my cell phone years ago.  I do not use that email address but the only way to get my contacts / photos off my old phone is through this live account, so I thought.   I went through the Q & A process provided by Microsoft, but they do not allow me access until they verify who I am.  How can I provide material and email addresses if I never used the email address?

  Unfortunately, it must be able to match the security information about the account to prove you are the owner, and we can not help you on this site.  Your best bet is to try the shape, or move the contacts manually.

  I would like to be able to set up my startup of Windows 7 on my PC, as it relates to my Microsoft online account.  My startup password when I turn on my computer first would be the same PW that I use for my Outlook and other activities online.  I hope that this would help sign me in the 'cloud' and take advantage of some of the features available in Office 2013, recently downloaded automatically.

• I have a problem with removing programs from the childs account.

  Original title: how to remove programs from my childs account?  He said that you are not allowed (as it should), but does not other options.

  I was cleaning my sons account and could not uninstall or remove most of the things.

  Its been a problem since I bought this new computer.   Some programs such as Adobe Flash, Chrome, etc. installed on my account, but not on other accounts.       They must be installed on each user account if they choose to use ie: Chrome, Adobe, Java etc.
  When Adobe Flash is installed for IE it is installed only on the user account that is not installed on the computer. So basically 3 accounts 3 downloads.
  Makes no sense.   However, some programs install to all accounts.
  When I uninstall a program from an admin account it does uninstall not other accounts 2 user.
  Logging into his account, I can't remove or uninstall.   I don't really want to delete the entire account.
  How can I accomplish this?
  Thanks, Denise

  Programs may vary in how they handle the installation and the removal of several accounts.
  I suggest to uninstall those that are a problem, temporarily change the account of the child to the administrator, connect you and make uninstalling and then change it back.   Not an elegant solution, but it should work.

• Microsoft email account password reset

  Hello

  I have a new PC that I bought last Nov/Dec with Windows 8 operating system.  At the point where I was getting set up I had either a Microsoft Access email or something but he bypassed that and I was able to set up local access and password which was very good.  I confirmed that I have a Microsoft email account configuration * address email is removed from the privacy *' with a password is valid, but this password does not work on my PC if I try to switch on my pc to Microsoft.

  How can I get the password reset for my Microsoft account which I suppose is using the above email address.

  Thank you for your help.

  Best regards
