• Windows Family Safety API from c# 8?

  Someone knows a good way to access the new Windows 8 parental from c#? Or any other programming language or scripting tool also?

  I want to write a small program that would connect to the Microsoft Family Safety website and check a number for a child is standing.

  I often allow full web access (temporarily) leave my child work on projects and then forget to turn it off. Thus ranks more games and bad. That's why I need the app: current settings to check several times a day and warn me if restricting web access has been disabled.

  In Windows 8, they leave the Windows GUI access to this web site: http://familysafety.microsoft.com. I don't know there is a way to access from Windows via a kind of API (I have Windows installed on another computer 8.1). I can't depend on the analysis of HTML pages, and an app like this is going to die the moment they change the web site (which is at any time).

  No documentation on MSDN.

  I found a few tips here http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5711277/change-users-parental-control-settings-using-wmi-in-c-sharp but this appears to be an old API that does not access the accounts the on the computer on which it is called. I need to connect to all that is the equivalent of http://familysafety.microsoft.com (I'll pass the info to login) and then read the settings.

  Thank you!

• 8.1 Windows family safety blocking of facebook

  This issue started happening a few months before, so I think it was a Win 8.1 update that caused it. There are a few sites that I have issues in my child with active parental control account.

The certificate is not approved, because no sender string has been provided. (Error code: sec_error_unknown_issuer). On some other sites, you get the option to add this exception. Here, you don't get that choice. I looked for the last 2 months and tried everything. Help, please. Thank you!

• Family Safety Windows blocking is not enough

  I have activated Windows parental controls for a child account on Windows 8.1 and disabled all applications that are registered except Chrome.

  I tested and it blocks a lot of things, but allows much more than just Chrome.

  I disabled the downloads in the center of the family, but downloading files via Chrome still works.

  Once connected was - this child account, I opened regedit and was able to tinker around in the registry and change everything that can create or modify a standard user account.

  Notepad works.  I created a .bat with some commands file and saved to the desktop.  Then, I clicked on it and run the script without any problems.

  Turn off all the sliders to block applications seems to give a false impression that the user is locked a lot more than they really are.

  Are there other applications and executable blocking settings that can be activated in the parental control?

  How can I set this up so that the child's account runs, which is expressly authorized in the white list and no other programs such as regedit, notebook, random scripts, etc.. ?

  I want this Windows system either as malware as possible evidence all being usable for surfing the web like a Chromebook, but this does not do.

  If the download blocking only works for IE, I couldn't remove Chrome in the list allow applications, but this still does not resolve the other issues listed.

• In Windows 8 family safety does not work

  Separated from this thread.

  I have the same problem. The websites that I entered as blocked does not crash. And when I contacted the technical support from Microsoft, a fool came on the line, tried to talk in general with me asking me where I lived, and when I started living there. I asked him to connect with a supervisor and the supervisor said I had to pay $99.95 for support. Bunch of idiots.

  Hello

  Are you sure that you talk to the official support of Microsoft? And there may be a fee.

  Be sure to check in Internet Explorer - Tools - Internet Options - Security that these sites are not confident.
