There is only 1 thing worse than Windows 8 and that is Family Safety in Windows 8. I have set this up so many times and it works for a day or so and the next thing I know my son is up half the night playing on his new laptop because the time limits or curfew did not work. I have read all sorts of forums and tried numerous things but still cannot get it to stick. Here is a list from memory what I have tried already -
- Deleted the "corrupted" files in the Family Safety folder
- Added a MS account for me, the parent to monitor
- Turned FS off and then back on
- Accessed from website on other computer (this was great when it did work. My son would call me at work and ask for a little more time and I could grant it without giving up my password.)
- I have read that I can "refresh" the FS program manually by clicking on some icon in the upper right corner but have yet to find that button.
Can someone provide a step by step process to make this work properly. Although I could not access remotely and only had curfew hours available on Win 7, at least it worked.
Thanks in advance for any help.
The third time, I opened two new email accounts and the linked the old ones to them, bet the hacker got the information about them to and was able to change all my information and the emails to retrieve my passwords.
The recovery system does not work since I can not get the link to reset the passwords and I do not know what information he changed for verification.
I keep getting this message every time I try to recover my account and I do not understand what does it mean:
Because you've turned on two-step verification for your account, we ignore these requests butI need help to retrieve my accounts

Hi,
I now cannot receive email or add my second account again to my Blackberry since you unlinked the accounts.
I have had support from BB and my service provider and the error appears to be on your server not now recognising my second account. Both accounts work fine on laptop and tablet. I need some tech person to check your server settings- Is it IMAP??

It appears my account has been infected, I can't seem to reset, get code or send to alternate email.
Sent questionnaire but unsure if that will yield results.
