Family Safety in Windows 10

Family Safety

You  can  log  on  to  your  family  safety  website  by  opening  your  web browser and navigating to the following address.
http://account.microsoft.com/family
You can click on your child’s name to view their activity.






Websites visited are  listed along with apps used and the  number of hours they have been using the computer or tablet.

You can see in the background of the photograph the activity shown on my PC’s monitor for Claire’s tablet.
You can block websites by clicking on the ‘web browsing’ link down the left hand side of the screen.

Turn  on  ‘block  inappropriate  websites’.  You  can  also  add  specific website addresses in the field ‘always block these’
You  can do the  same  with Apps & Games. Clicking on this link will
allow you to set age limits on games. Eg, only allow your children to play  12s or  block  18+  or  adult  games containing  violence  or  sexual
content.
Screen time allows you to set curfews so you can prevent your children using their tablets or computers except  in the  designated hours. Eg from 6pm-8pm. Or for 2 hours a day.
