Why can't I delete Windows Live Family Safety?

I used Windows Live Essentials 2011 Setup to remove Windows Live Family Safety, since it doesn't seem to work in Win8. However, if I type 'Family' on the start screen, it appears here. If I choose that, I get a dialog box indicating that there are compatibility problems. If I right-click and choose uninstall, need me "Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Programs and features" and it is not listed there. If I open the parental controls control panel, it still appears as one of the suppliers.

What should I do to get rid of him?

Hi Rick,

Since you have problems uninstalling Windows Live Family Safety using the Control Panel, I suggest you uninstall the Windows Live Essentials together via the CMD line parameter and reinstall only applications required, please follow the steps in the link below:

How to uninstall Windows Live Essentials through the CMD line parameter

Download and reinstall through this link. This installer allows you to choose which programs you want to install, select the Windows Live programs wanted to and proceed with the installation.

Let us know what happens then.

Kind regards

    Yes, Windows Live family safety can track websites visited using Google Chrome incognito mode. Navigation in incognito mode keeps Google Chrome to store information about the sites you have visited. Windows Live Family Safety will always keep the navigation history in this mode.

    Hi, I made a user account for my children and I was wondering if there was a way to make windows live family safety warn you before the time lock on your place, for the moment my kids just get locked without time to disconnect!

    a warning of 5 minutes a notification would be great!

    Thank you

    Hello

    The latest version of family safety 2012 (Build 16.4.3503.728) is now available for Windows 7. With the latest version of your child will ask you twice; first 15 minutes before curfew and another is 1 minute before to be disconnected. This will give him enough time to do the stuffs that he/she must do before having disconnected. The warning will appear in the part where the parental control system tray icon.

    Very important note: Once you install family safety 2012, other Microsoft Essentials programs will be updated for 2012 and will replace Windows Live Mesh with SkyDrive.

    If you want to keep Windows Live Mesh, you can choose to use this version of work of Windows Live Essentials 2011 (Build 15.4.3555.0308). The curfew works the same way as the 2012 version that invites the child before being disconnected. In addition, before the update to 2012, if you are a frequent user of Movie Maker, make sure you meet the requirements to avoid any problems when you run the version of Movie Maker 2012.

    We suggest also to everyone to use Internet Explorer 8 or 9 when the definition of change on the Family Safety website to avoid any problems.

    Hello

    I understand how frustrating. Generally, the software does not affect any material of the computer/laptop. If can still run your laptop on in any case, we recommend that you press f8 at start up and run it in safe mode. If you were able to run in safe mode, we recommend to uninstall Windows Live Family Safety to isolate the cause of this problem. You can see the link below for how to do it:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/uninstall-or-change-a-program

    If you were unable to complete the steps above, then we recommend that you contact your laptop manufacturer for more help. It is possible that there is a problem with the hardware itself (hard disk, memory, battery, etc.).

    Thank you!

  • Windows live family safety makes the network/internet connection hang at 6 + minutes at startup

    When starting the laptop, the system hangs and does not connect to the internet for another 6 minutes after it starts.  Programs such as MS office Internet will work, while wait us... and wait...

    After 6 minutes it just connects and runs normally without assistance.

    I am running windows live family safety on a Vista sp2 with all updates completed.

    If I uninstall WLFS then the problem disappears.

    I have found no other mention of this on the web than this thread.  Can anyone tell if there is a solution?

    This happened for several months, but has only been bought to my attention by my niece, who, at the age of 12, all machines take 8.5 minutes to start to work!  I guess that there is a bug in an update somewhere causing this as it was working fine when I initially installed and set up the machine.
