• 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.

• Windows 8 family safety does not.

  Windows 8, parental control does not work.  He said "this account is being watched..." "and he's being watched, but I can navigate to all adult sites, even if the family safety settings are set to block.

  SOLVED!  I found the answer.  You must set the rating system in Microsoft Family safety.  I chose the premiera (Classification operations Commission)

  

  Without this setting, no site will be blocked.

• Windows Live family safety will not start before install - requires a reboot.

  I just downloaded Windows Live Web site and Windows Live parental controls will not load. It gives just the error message "you must restart the computer to complete the setting of family security". "." Reboots makes no difference.
  I was looking to reinstall, but I don't find it in Add/Remove programs to get rid of.
  A new download acknowledged that it was already there and won't let me install again.

• Could not find a download for Windows Live Family Safety for Windows 7

  Hello

  I want to download Windows Live Family Safety for Windows 7, but I could not find this download anywhere.  I've found directions on how to download and a link to the download, but ultimately I'm directed to a download for Windows Essentials which includes no parental control.  I Googled, tried Windows 7 help & many other sites and have not managed to find a download for this program.  Is it not possible to get this download more?

  Please let know us if anyone has an idea for me.  I've been spinning my wheels on it for hours.  Thank you for reading this.

  Is it the instructions and the page that contains the link you tried: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/set-up-family-safety#set-up-family-safety=windows-7

  It contains step by step instructions.

  You have a Windows Live ID account / Microsoft account?

• Windows Live Family Safety ruined my laptop Lenovo software!

  Windows Live Family Safety ruined my laptop Lenovo software!  It won't even turn on now!  I loaded web filtering toolbar Bing only and immediately put in the parental control settings, the machine starts randomly stop and failing to start properly so far: HE WON ' T EVEN POWER up!  I ' M FURIOUS!

  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.

  Thank you very much

• Windows Live Family Safety - menu start closes

  I have recently installed Windows Live Family Safety on two desktop computers.  Menus to start the computer both are now practically unusable.  The start menu closes / disappears in the opening moments.  It took several attempts to be fast enough to click on start, then on the button restart button.

  After many attempts, I was able to open the control panel.  In the Parental controls window, down under additional controls. I changed the selected provider of Windows Live Family Safety to zero.  Without even closing the window of Parental control, the start menu resumed its normal operation.  When I cycle between zero and Windows Live Family Safety menu start immediately works or does not work according to the configuration.

  Given that he is on both computers is a setting in WLFS or this, I chose a big bug that makes unusable WLFS?  (Hard to believe)

  All windows updates have been applied and multiple reboots have been attempted.

  I would like to use the product and would appreciate any help.

  The issue seems to have resolved itself.  I don't know if WLFS needed to synchronize with a server, or which solved the problem.  When I came back to this computer the next day, however, the start menu was working fine.

  Although this is resolved itself, I found mention of this issue in an online journal of magazine and in another forum of responses, so I hope that Microsoft will continue to address the issue.

• Family safety does not wab browsing activity report

  Hello

  I set up parental controls for a child almost a year back

  and it has worked perfectly until about a month.

  Now he sends to empty activity reports

  claiming that it was not any web browsing activity.

  But I know for a fact that this activity takes place.

  Is anyone know how fix/Debug this?

  I already checked that:

  -Name of the PC comes to /familysafety.microsoft.com

  -On the website: date/time of last activity reported for this PC

  is correct and up to date

  -On the website: 'Activity tracking' is on 'ON' for the child

  -On the PC: WPCMon is NOT running (in Task Manager)

  If I log in as a child, or like me

  -On the PC: Family Safety icon appears in the taskbar.

  When I connect as a child popup icon says:

  "Family safety monitors your account."

  Thank you!

  Hello

  1. which antivirus program is installed on the computer?

  2. what type of internet connection do you use? Is it wireless or wired?

  This problem normally occurs when the parental control settings are not configured correctly or recording. You may need to configure the settings to see if it helps.

  You can check this by blocking a Web site and try to access it from the browser. Also, make sure that the child's account does not use proxy connections.

  You can also update the family safety filter and check the results.

  How to update the family safety filter?

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Live/Family-Safety-filter-FAQ?woldogcb=0

  Also, you can disable the antivirus if installed some and check.

  Caution:
  Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  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.

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.

• Windows Live Family Safety 2011 contacts management

  I decided to use Windows Live Family Safety 2011 given documents that there the management of contacts for the e-mail accounts in the child.

  I watched videos on the web and read documents on how to put in place, but when I log on the Family Safety website I introduced to all categories of web filtering, lists of filtering web, followed by activity, deadlines, restrictions of game, etc but no contact management.

  There, anyone know if it is still available under parental controls, and if so, how do activate you it?

  My guess is that since not enough people used Microsoft removed as an option or moved to pay for a product.

  Any help is appreciated...

• 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:
