• Cannot synchronize windows security 8 for the family with Web site

  I already have a security account for the family windows on pc windows 7 of my son.  We just got him a windows Tablet 8 for school and I want to add this device to his account with the same settings.  I went through the installation on windows 8 (creation of a local child account for him, which allows security for the family for the account).  When I hit the button to manage the settings on the family safety website, it tells me that the service is not available.  My Internet as fine (since I'm on this site), so I doubt that it is a temporary problem.  On the family safety website, it shows its Windows 7 PC, but not the tablet of windows 8.  Someone has ideas of how do I synchronize the security settings for the windows family 8 with the site?

• 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.

  Hello Ellen,.

  Thanks for writing to us, we are happy to help Microsoft Community.

  I understand that you want to replace the primary parent in family safety. I apologize, but we do not have this option of parental control. What you can do is to reconfigure your parental control by using the new account that you have. First of all, you must disable the parental controls from your main account.

  For more information about disabling/removing Family Safety, please visit the link below.

  How can I remove parental control?

  Once you clear the previous parent ID, you can configure Family Safety using the new user as the ID of the Parent account.

  Here is the link using which you can create a new Microsoft Account.

• 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.

• Unable to start the Service for the Protection of software

  I am running Windows RT on a Lenovo ZTE K3011W-F (aka Lynx). This device has been used by two people before, and so was a previous configuration. I did a factory reset on the device, except Windows now refuses to turn on, so I can't update/customize/upgrade, etc.. It is not immediately ban, but eventually it can be seen as harmful to the security of the system.

  I traced the symptoms to what seems to be a reasonable explanation, that is, the Service for the Protection of software is not running, and when he was invited to run, it returns an error indicating: error 5: access is denied.

  When I go to activate Windows Sidebar "Change PC settings", I saw a button that says active, but it displays a message that says: "not found Activation Error Description.
