  • Windows 7 security for the family

    Hello

    A couple of years back, I've set up family safety on my daughter's laptop Win 7.  She is now 17 and a senior in high school.  Time to lift the restrictions.  They interfere with his school work.  I had a couple of Microsoft accounts over the years.  I think that I probably put in place safety for the family on his machine using an older account.  When I try to log in security for the family on his cell phone, he already has my most recent user name and allow me to the older (and the password).  When I get my most recent credentials, it says the following: "the action cannot be completed because the parent is therefore more a part of the Family Safety family."  How can I enter the security software for the family on his computer, turn it off and uninstall.  Thank you.

  • How configure security for the family of my adolescence with the ablility to add or remove installed programs?

    The young person must be able to install and uninstall programs as an administrator. I tried setting up a standard account, but the first thing he did was to try to remove the Windows Live folder. He also tried to hack the system to remove the program. The teenager still fills the hard disk at maximum capacity, which is about 230 GB and he wants to be able to uninstall or remove programs regularly. I would like to set up his account to be able to do, but it prevents playing with security for the family. The reason for the installation of the family safety program is to monitor its activities. If he knows he's being watched it will be twice before doing things he's not supposed to do. The program works very well for young children, but adolescents are more difficult to treat. There must be a way to monitor its activities without her havoc on the operating system. Microsoft has done a great job with this program regarding now the difficulties children but this all older children who need a little more freedom. Can someone help?

    The first thing I would do is to create the admin password recovery media, then create another admin account.

    If the teenager needs admin privileges you are wide open, so I hope that you have all your recovery disks and backup data.

  • Security for the family and the Task Manager

    I installed on all my computers, parental control, for all users, and it is configured to block all adult sites.  It works perfectly, but there is a fault.  A person can go into the Task Manager and end the process and access the internet without the security of the family running.  Is there a way to stop the possibility of terminating the process in the Task Manager?
    Help, please?

    Hi Lisa,

    We have simulated the issue on our end. Standard accounts can use the Task Manager to end the control client parental (fsui.exe), but if he or she tries to put end to the the service process control parental (fsssvc.exe), it will be refused. This would avoid the child's account to get around the parental control service.
    If you want to disable the tasks for the standard account manager, you can post on the forum of Windows. Please note that the Task Manager is useful for standard accounts such as terminate tasks for programs no longer responds.
    Thank you!

    I'm sorry to know that you have problems with the blocking of Web sites using parental controls. Let me try and help you with this question.

    4 tick to enable web filtering you can adjust the slider to different settings.

  • Security for the family - windows live essentials vs windows 8 (Central reports seems to be lost)

    I used Family Safety as a component of Windows Live Essentials on PCs of my sons of Windows 7 and the central of the report and the blocking of Web sites has worked well, however it would never connect any other activity such as playing games or use software in general. Since I've upgraded to Windows 8, I realize that parental control is now integrated into the operating system itself and works very well in a sense that it reports properly time spent on a computer in general and it is then broken down by applications. In addition, it also has the ability not only to restrict web browsing, but also to limit the time spent on a PC. However, the reports that I keep getting seem to be empty, and I can check only parental control so I log on the local computer and then run reports. I would also like to stress that my children and I have same connection to our Windows 8 PCs using our Hotmail accounts however 'the link' with central reporting seems to be lost. We are talking 2 different and separate, versions or what I need to configure something?

    Hello

    Family Safety isn't a standard lag time, but the information must be in sync soon once Family Safety detects activity on the computer.

    As for your second question, you can use it as a main administrator account. You can remove the old local account, but you have backup your files, and the new master account must have full administrator privileges.

    Thank you!

  • Security for the family on XP

    Summary of the issue
    Other issues of Windows Live family safety

    What version of Windows Live Family Safety do you use?
    Version 2009 (14.0.8117.416)
    Choose your operating system version:
    Windows XP SP3

    Additional details
    Hello..

    Recently I set up Windows Live Family Safety on my desktop with Windows 7.  I was quite impressed by it, so I decided to install it on Office XP for my daughter.

    I downloaded the necessary Installer for XP; WLE 2009 v14.0.8117.416.  When installing, I chose to install parental controls only.  All completed without error.  I then started the parental control in the start menu... so far, so good.  Then I entered in my Windows Live ID.  A window in charge and asked me what accounts I wanted to follow, but it was empty, so I was unable to act.  There are three standard accounts in service on my daughter's computer so I'm a little confused as to why none of them showed.

    A test, I created a test account in the control panel and only one appeared in the parental controls window.

    Can someone explain why the other accounts are not appear to please and most importantly, how to get to their work?

    Thank you very much...

    Nick :)

    Course... Finally!

    I decided to create two new user accounts for children on the XP machine.  These were immediate in the parental control settings window and I was able to choose to monitor... I was also able to bind to so the current parental control setting which was very convenient.

    It seemed that the problem was caused by the name of the profiles being the same as the name of the profiles on my Windows 7 box.  If this is the case, I'm a little surprised that I couldn't get this resolved much sooner.

    Thanks for the help though.

    If I could make a suggestion though...

    The FSQuickTrace tool is simply not compatiple with XP then it may be an idea to not recommend XP users try to run it.

    See you soon...

    Nick :)

  • Complete security for the family by blocking programs after uninstall

    Hello

    I tried to activate the control of application on my son's account to prevent it from playing games online before major exams.

    I activate the control application and checked the games'programs and only game programs.
    It appeared that she also blocked Open Offfice programs (office of her school program)
    and he could no longer do his homework on his computer.
    So I tried to turn it off.
    It did not work.

    I tried in many ways, in vain,
    so I tried to uninstall the parental control.
    Totally: uninstalled Windows live on your PC (standard Microsoft recommended procedure).
    delete his account on the Microsoft Family Safety Web site.
    deleted the account parent on the Web site too.

    I tried CCleaner.

    By blocking.
    How a program always popup blocking issues after uninstall is complete?
    It is totally buggy!

    Tried to reinstall averything, check everything restart, uncheck everything.
    By blocking.

    Dumbest thing I've seen: a parental control popup telling me that family safety has blocked... Family safety!

    How can I clear out bleach these flags hidden scrap blocking?

    Please don't tell me to follow the official Microsoft uninstall procedure.
    I already did it twice.
    I need a patch, a difficulty, a hammer blacksmith for this program bugged.

    Current status: disabled family installed and active, the control of the application, always blocking Open Office.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I saved my son data (excluding ApData which I knew well for hide hidden control settings).
    delete his account;
    restarted;
    re-created his account,
    reinstalled Live Family Safety;
    it activated on son's account.
    restarted.

    I tried OpenOffice and the game, are not blocked.

    I'll wait some time (it has a lot to do to build on green energy for school) before trying again to activate the control of the application.

    Thank you for your support.
