Posted April 6, 2017 So long story short, I visited my friend, and added my account onto his Xbox One. I might have added it wrong, or something like that, but it basically added me to his Microsoft family, which has very stringent restrictions on content. I've since removed myself from his family, but my laptop seems to have not gotten the memo. I can't open any programs which aren't Microsoft approved. (Which hilariously means that I can't use Google Chrome, but I CAN use Microsoft Edge) So, short of a complete re-install of windows, what can I do to remove these restrictions?

Posted April 6, 2017 You should be able to change those settings in the windows 10 profile settings. Did it make a local account or something. I know I've had issues with windows accounts.

Ask Microsoft. It sounds like a glitch or something to me. Contact them on the website or look for something on their FAQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
