Set up Parental controls in Vista
Hello
I came across a problem that I would ask Council to. Right now my daughters PC is implemented with the use of Parental controls,
This works very well but has a problem that I can't solve. When the user is on the PC, the Parental control to go online, it also prevents the user to work with Word or Excel to perform all work from home to school.
Question: Is there a setting in the configuration that allows the use of Applications, but not shipping line?
TIA

setting up parental controls in windows vista Yahoo Messenger using esp
I just bought a new machine and I am trying to set up parental controls. I have windows Vista Home Premium... When Parental control is disabled, YM works, but when it is turned ON, even if the setting is "Allow all Web sites" (which is not make sense because that's what Parental control is all about), but it's the last option I did and so far, my children still can connect to YM. They can use it only when they run it as administrator and means that I always have to type my password, but this is not practical, because I work.
My kids play games other games online, but they are stored in my drive to external hardware. I don't want my crash machine just because of games... but when I try ro turn ON User Account Control, some games are always asking my permission... like when they play DotA, the software application on my external hard drive.
Thank you.

Help for the parental control on Vista administrator account
Computer of my son is running Vista and I set parental controls in place through the administrator account, there a nonadministrator account.
I changed the password after that we had a few problems with the controls, and now I want to change the settings again. However, the old password allows for parental control (IE, he allows his account access websites and bypass control, etc.), but when I try to access the administrator account, it says the old password does not work. When I enter the password, account says I don't have the login procedure and kicks back me to the main screen of Vista (where I take which account to enter).
So, I'm stuck administering the account due to a conflict in the parental control passwords. If I try to reset the password, the computer ask me a USB stick with the old password on it information. It is a step that I did not.
Any way to disable the administrator account? Or somehow remove/reset the parental control account access restrictions that I am experiencing?
"when I enter the parental control in the non-administrative account, the system simply ignores the password that I entered"
I suggest you read this info below on who has access to parental controls and how it works:

Link above has a very good tutorial on how to set up Parental controls.

Internet does not work after you set up parental controls.
I just create a new account and set up parental controls for it. Before I did the internet worked, but after you have configured parental controls, internet would not just work for my desktop which has a direct line. I have a router and even after, the wifi signal and internet would always work however my line connection direct wouldn t. I continued doing to solve the problem and start system restore, but every time I tried to set up the account with the internet parental control just doesn't work.Thanks in advance.

We used Live parental control for a period of time (years) but I never could 'fix' his account.Whenever he tries to use hotmail or outlook.com, it gets the error"Your account is not ready.""Looks like your mother has not finished to set up parental controls for your account settings. Click "Access the parental control settings" to complete the process and access your account. »We are now on Windows 8, which has of course the family safety features it's own... but switch off these features did not help to solve the problem.Please correct the account.the child account: {deleted}parents account: {deleted}(please hide meanings for the protection of privacy as soon as POSSIBLE)Hi stone barrel,.
We made a few adjustments for the affected account. Please check if the problem persists.Thank you! -

Need help to set up parental controls
Hello
I want to set up parental controls on my son's laptop computer.
Thus, users are
His name
Director of comp.
Password protected
not monitored by family safety
I thought that I could not / would not set up on the administrator, so I created a second user
His name1
standard user - control parental on
no password
monitored by family safety
I have implemented controls, but they are not in force, I guess, because they should be on his main user? If this means that it can change the settings since this is admin? I'm confused :(
Hi Dee2537,
We are happy to help you set up parental controls in your son's laptop computer. Given the information you have provided, we see that you addressed some of the scenarios where parental control will not work correctly. One of it is implemented in your child as an administrator's account. Family safety not restrict and recognize the account as a child, if the application detects that it is using an administrator account. The other implements access to his account without password because Family Safety requires that the user has a password to secure the account. Because you have pain to configure the account correctly, we strongly recommend that you follow the instructions step by step on how to set up on behalf of the child in the family security and laptop to your son.
Here is the link where you can find the complete steps: setting up parental controls
Please let us know if you need more help and we will help you the best we can.
Thank you.

I had a few actual creation difficulty one Hotmail account for my daughter. I'm using Windows (newer) 8. I have created an account for it, but can't make it work. Everytime I try to sign into his Hotmail I get the following error:
"Hotmail 44 looks like your mother has not finished to set up parental controls for your account settings. Click "Access the parental control settings" to complete the process and access your account. »
Needless to say I went to family safety settings on our PC and the Security Web site for the family repeatedly to change the settings that might seem to apply, but it has only settings web for her, no setting of Hotmail to update me at all. Am I missing something, or is this a problem?
I've seen one or two similar posts...
Thank you

Hi BigDcdn,
For us, in order to better afin de mieux aider help you with this issue, please send us screenshots of what follows:- List of child accounts on https://familysafety.microsoft.com
- Settings for the computer of the child concerned on the site of the family safety (the page where it shows queries, e-mail notifications, etc.).
- The list of the user accounts on your computer
I have sent you a private message for instructions. After you download it, please let know us in this thread.Thank you.Okay, so I thought about it and it's ugly and not intuitive.
The REAL CAUSE of the ROOT of this error is that you CANNOT add a new kid in the Family Safety (FSS) Web site.
But as a solution, you can add a new kid on the Section of the Windows Phone website My family.
FIRST STEP remove account the offending child of family on the site of the FSS under the management of the list of the members of the family section. Once this has been completed, follow the workaround below.
WORKAROUND
- Then from the sign of site Web of Windows Phone with your Microsoft Account (MSA) (parent).
- Hover over your name just below upper right of the search box and you will get a context box.
- In the context box, select My Family.
- In the Section My family, you will have two lists. PARENTS and CHILDREN, and especially an ADD A KID to the right of the list headers.
- Click on the link. Now, you will get a login screen of the MSA.
- Register your child or have them enter login and password. They will appear as a kid under the section of your Windows Phone my family. Even if they do not have a phone you can add.
- Ask them to connect in hotmail\outlook.com with their MSA will complete the configuration of security for the family.
REAL SOLUTION
There must be a link on the site of the FSS for KID A ADD (add a child would be more enjoyable unless of course you are a family of goats) identical to that of the Windows Phone my family section. Seems like a logical place to have this option?
I hope this helps anyone else having this problem.

you want to know how to block the ophcrack from running, my child uses this to get my password and in the parental controls in vista. I have 3 accounts going 2 for children and one for the parents/administrator. I found ophcrack in several places on the computer. any help would be greatly appreciated
The only question the idea of Malkeleah, that is when you put a password on BIOS, all you need to do is pop the battery from the motherboard and the password is gone. Faronics has in some programs such as anti-executable and a few other programs that may block the name or ID of a process and prevent it from running (some antiviruses have that option, such as Avast, but usually is a pain in the ass to configure)
