  Hi wimuggss,
   
  Step 1: Disable UAC (User Account Control) and check the result
  See How can I change the behavior of user account control by using the cursor?
  Note: You must restart your computer when you enable or disable UAC. Change levels of notification does not require that you restart your computer.
   
  Important: Enable UAC after you complete the steps.
   
  Step 2: If the problem persists, try to set the parental control in safe mode and check the result. If you are able to apply settings in safe mode, this means that some program is causing this problem, mainly the security software.

  Hello

  Since when are you facing this problem?

  If it worked before, then do a system restore to restore the computer to an earlier point in time before the problem started.

• Error when you try to add a basic Windows Vista Home Edition user account password.

  I would like to add a password to secure my PC a little more by doing the following:
  AutoScan (Vista Orb) > Control Panel > user accounts > create a password for your account
  I enter a password to 10 characters. I tried more or less characters, a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers etc, but everything I try I get the following message:

  "The password you entered does not meet the password policy requirements. Check the minimum password length, password complexity and password history requirements"

  I am running Vista Home Basic.

  I checked the Windows updates are all to date.

  I tried to create a new user account and create a password for the new account (both of my main user account and the new user account) and I get the same message.

  I also activated the 'Administrator' account (cmd > net user administrator / Active: Yes) and tried to use the administrator account to create a password and it does not work either!

  I ran Microsoft Security Essentials software, choose scan "Full". The software found no viruses or malware on my computer, but he did put in quarantine RealVNC (software remote access we use occasionally to work).

  I have created a screenshots of system information (to show which operating system I use), the dialogue 'create password for your account' (to show that I am logged on as administrator and to make sure that I do not have the process wrong--always possible!) and the error message "user account control panel.

  I also took a screenshot of the thing that MSE found after analysis is complete on my system.

• 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.

• Hotmail 44 looks like your mother has not finished to set up parental controls for your account settings.

  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...

  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

  1. Then from the sign of site Web of Windows Phone with your Microsoft Account (MSA) (parent).
  2. Hover over your name just below upper right of the search box and you will get a context box.
  3. In the context box, select My Family.
  4. 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.
  5. Click on the link. Now, you will get a login screen of the MSA.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
