Parental control: I am the admin of the computer and the computer won't let me access the list allow and block my child's account

I am the administrator of the computer and the computer won't let me access the list allow and block my child's account.  I'll bring my parental control password, click on my childs account, put parental controls, go to web filter and click on block some web sites, click on edit the allow and block list and the computer tells me that it is not able to make changes to parental controls settings and see the system administrator if the problem persists.

Hi Ranw,

·        What is the error message when you try to change parental controls?

·        Have you been able to make any changes on this computer from your account earlier?

You can follow the steps below and check if you can make changes to the parental controls on your computer.

Step 1:

Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check the result. Access the link below and follow the steps to disable UAC.

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/turn-user-account-control-on-or-off

Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.

 

Step 2:

I suggest to create a new administrator account and log later in the new administrator account, try to set parental controls and check if it works.

Create a user account:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-user-account

Check out the link below to check if the parental control is properly set:

I hope this helps. Let us know the result.

Thank you and best regards,

  • Parental control unavailable since the change of e-mail account in Outlook

    I can no longer access or control security settings for the family since the evolution of my hotmail account outlook account, as recommended by Microsoft.  An omnipresent annoying popup asking me to write in my pw, but the user ID is always displayed as my old account hotomail and I am unable to change that.  So I tried, but a message says that it is incorrect, which, of course, it is.   Now I wonder if I will be unable to install new software if my account name is not recognized?

  • delete a block - my computer won't let me use google chrome as a browser. It indicates that the internet connection is not available.

    When you use the internet, my virus detector asked if I would allow google chrome to download a newer version. I clicked on the decline, and then my internet has stopped working. I finally got back on, but now my computer won't let me use google chrome as a browser. It indicates that the internet connection is not available. I was able to use other browsers, but not Google. I tried disabling my firewall to see if it would work then, but it still doesn't work. Any suggestions? I'm afraid, that I blocked it somehow. Thank you!!

    Hello

    I suggest you post your question in the Google Chrome forums here: http://www.google.com/support/forum

    This looks like a problem with this specific program and not with Windows. I hope this helps!

  • Windows 7 won't let me access the files (my documents, my downloads), but the programs work very well!

    Currently, I am running windows 7 Ultimate on my desktop I built. My computer starts up fine, no problem when I connect and I can run all my programs like itunes, security suite norton, chrome, Picasa and Microsoft word work completely fine. There is no problem to save things on Word view my photos on Picasa (which is on the C drive) or by playing songs on itunes (which means that I can access my hard drive through programs), but when I try to open the downloads folder, it shows a popup that says: "this operation has been cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this computer. Please contact your system administrator. "and does not open the file. The problem is that I AM the administrator account on the computer! However, when I open things in my libraries such as My Documents or my music, there just a blank page, saying that I have no files in this folder, but I have files in all of these files: photos, all my music itunes and documents.

    The interesting thing is that I can save documents to the word to My Documents and it will be displayed at the beginning, but when I close the My Documents window and reopen it, the file disappeared and the folder is 'empty' again.

    Currently. I have 2 hard drives connected, a seagate 1 TB and a supplement of 250 GB. Both of these drives appear in disk management, so that the computer knows and is able to see are how many gb on them. Apart from this recognition, when I open the start menu and press computer, it only shows my USB and my CD player, nor of my hard drives. I know that computers are connected correctly as they hum and dry as usual. I am very worried about what is, be it a virus, bad connection, settings that have been changed for any reason any.

    Please help me understand why Windows 7 won't let me access my files through programs, but not in Finder Windows, I have very important files on this computer that I can't lose!

    Windows 7 has a feature of self defense which is a pain.

    He doesn't like files from other computers,

    Right-click on the folder and select properties and see if there is a release button.

    Repeat for external drives.

  • Siri is disabled by the Parental control on macOS Sierra admin account

    I just installed macOS Sierra today on my 13 "Mac Book Pro (early 2011). I have only one user account that is an administrator account. Siri is not enabled on my machine. When I go to the Siri system preferences screen, it says that "Siri is disabled by Parental control. Hmmm, when I check the Parental control screen, it says "you logged in using an administrator account." You can only apply parental controls to accounts that are not administrator accounts. »

    What happens here?

    Same problem here. Updated for Sierra of El Capitan on MacBookPro 15 "(mid - 2014).

    Even if I toggle the checkbox on the Parental control > others > disable Siri & dictation I can't activate Siri, the checkox is always gray and the alert says "Siri is disabled by Parental control.

    Siri is enabled if I login as a burst, but I need it on my Admin account of course. Very annoying.

  • Apple TV won't let me access the Disney shows

    I already went through the code and connected to my direct tv account a few days ago. Everything worked very well! I was able to access all the Disney watch I wanted. But today after I just made a movie on the Disney app, I went to click on the following and an ERROR came up saying that I have to change my parental control because I'm not allowed to watch it. This now he tells ALL about the Disney app even shows I've already looked at. In addition, I don't have my parental control in my settings... I re set my apple tv and that nature has not worked. I got it for 3 days...  Help, please!

    Are there perhaps parental control settings on behalf of DirecTV or in the application of Disney?

    Have you checked the ATV settings to ensure that they are not activated?

    What version of Windows Live Family Safety do you use?

    Windows 7

    Additional details
    My son has a filter "allowed list only" on his account, however, sites I have on the list of my son are now blocked and even if I try to reapprove them, they are always blocked.  I tried everything I can think of.  It is obviously not a computer problem because it does the same thing on the computer and the laptop.  Help, please!

    I did the following and it fixed the problem where the authorized sites were blocked:

    1. remove the PC from the parental control Web site (they get automatically added when you go through the following steps)
    2 turn off parental control on the PC under control panel, the Parental control (in the drop-down list, select 'None')
    3 reset (perhaps not required, but I still just to be sure everything is reset)
    4 re - activate parental control on the PC under control panel, the Parental control (in the drop-down list, select "Windows Live Family Safety")
    5. from the Parental control, select the user account that you want to activate for parental control and go through the standard process
    6. connect to the family Web site security and web to DISABLE filtering for the account, click Save.
    7. right click on the parental control in the right lower bar icon and select "open family safety filter.
    8. click on the circular icon blue arrows in the upper right corner of the dialog box to refresh the parental control settings.
    9. open a few websites to ensure that you can access.
    10 sign in to the family safety website again and ENABLE web filtering for the account, click Save.
    11. yet once, click on the circular icon blue arrows in the upper right corner of the dialog box to refresh the parental control settings.
    12 should now work (work sites permit, unauthorized sites do not work)

    I did these steps on each of my children PCs and they work now.
