    Adult account still asked for Family Settings password?


    I turned 18 a few months ago and promoted my account, but when I try to use YouTube or IE, I'm told that Family Settings blocked the content, and that I have to put in the pass code...which only my dad knows. Was I mistaken to think that I would be freed
    from the Family Settings once I got an adult account? If not, what can be done about it?

    :)

    Cross-platform for child accounts don't work, no matter what settings I set

    The cross-platform setting does not enable on a child account.

    I have tried several options including:

    • Account setup as a child in the MS family account and Xbox
    • Account setup as a child in the MS family account but the Xbox settings all set to adult/unrestricted
    • Account setup with over 18 Date of Birth in the MS family account but still a Child and the Xbox settings all set to adult/unrestricted
    • Account setup as Adult in the MS family account and Xbox settings all set to adult/unrestricted
    • Changing the child account to Adult and Xbox settings all set to adult/unrestricted.
    Can someone help me how to set up my kid's accounts so they can play together?

    Adult account still asked for Family Settings password?

    Promoting your account allows you to customise your own privacy and security options yourself, but the Family Settings is a console-wide control and would need to be removed completely (for which you need the passcode).

    Screen time

    Hi

    There is no other way to leave the family or change any of the settings than through adults in your family. The best thing to do is ask for a new password on the account that has adult permissions in the family and change your screen time

    Hope this helps

    "Change your child’s Xbox privacy and online safety settings" when I try to access to my Xbox profile from the internet

    Unless you are over the age of 18 your parents (or another adult guardian) has to make account settings for your teen account.

    Ask an adult to add your teen account to their family at
    https://account.microsoft.com/family

    Changing Adult Account

    You have to download the profile of the adult account, go over to settings on the dashboard (not the guide menu) and then the family tile. Then they can remove you. I believe as soon as you sign into your own account it'll ask for a new parental email &
    password

    Child Account

    If I change my adult account password, won't he still be able to go into his account and just "leave" the family?
