  1. Allowing family (specifically kids) to use parents game pass on PC


    It would be great if it were possible to allow my kids setup in my Microsoft family account access and play games from the game pass on their PC. I signed up for the game pass primarily for the kids although I do use a bit on my pc, but it would be great if the kids could use the games on the PC as well so that when one is playing on the xbox the other can play on the PC.

    Microsoft family invitations and controls

    i use parental controls for 4 of my 5 kids

    they cannot just leave the family without permission from the parent.

    i use family controls under the website to control xbox and pc, really easy and not cumbursome

    where are you trying to setup now that sends the codes?

    Xbox Game Pass Ultimate Famly Sharing

    Hi There,

    The Xbox App for PC on Windows 10 should automatically have the Ultimate subscription flow in when my kids sign in but that is not the case. My kids are able to receive the membership on the console through my account and they can play the games through
    the pass which works fine no complaints. I need to know when will this Game pass subscription sharing will work with Xbox app for PC.

    Thanks,

    Akash
    Because it doesnt

    Home sharing is only a feature on the xbox one

    Not the pc

    Can I use my Xbox Game Pass Ultimate subscription on multiple Windows 10 PCs?

    Yes, just like Xbox Live Gold or Xbox Game Pass, you can use this subscription wherever you sign in. Your subscription is tied to you, not to a specific device.

    https://support.xbox.com/en-CA/billing/xbox-subscriptions/xbox-game-pass-ultimate-faq

    Keep in mind that it only applirs.to the membership itself

    Your kids cannot download any game on their own profile but they can use the xbox app.to play the games

    On the PC it's a bit awkward.

    First of all, you'll have to make sure yourkids s added to your Microsoft family. Sign in with your account on https://account.microsoft.com/family. There add your kids is
    Microsoft Account if not already done so.

    Now the complicated part on getting the Game Pass Games on your kid's PC:

    Your kids has to add your Microsoft Account as a second user to their PC.

    Then with your kids SIGNED IN, have themr go to the Windows Store or Xbox Game Pass App.

    If they signed in to these apps, to sign out temporarily from these apps, and you will have to sign in with your account.

    You ONLY sign into the APPS! You do NOT sign out your kids from their logged in account on the PC!

    Then with your account signed in on the store app or the Xbox Game Pass app, your kids can then download and install the PC games.

    Family (features on Xbox One need a way to manage family members)

    The problem is my brother was removed from my family months ago.

    He was removed and deleted from my Xbox one because my parental settings prevented him from playing x360 games and content.

    Problem #2 is that Microsoft allows other adults to break up a family

    Problem #3 Microsoft does not give control to the parents of the kids so basically this system allows "kidnapping"

    I can't log into my brothers profile because his profile is not on my console nor can I add him because I don't have his password or the text password which is good for security.

    Microsoft needs to pair kids with one to two parents and not allow parents to be removed from a family. That's an oversight.

    As of now I'm stuck and my kids are stuck until he comes back into town.

    PS please fix the forums as I couldn't reply for hours (8+)

    xbox live logon issue

    Is it possible that you have turned on family settings and set up a play timer allowance for your kids?

    Unfortunately, that timer is console based, not account based, if I remember correctly.

    So if you set an allowance for your kids, each kid and you draw from that timed allowance.

    For example: You want to allow each of your kids to play 7 hours during the week. So you set the timer to 7 hours a week. But every time the console is turned on, the time counts down. No matter what kid is signed in, or if you are playing.

    For more information, check
    the page about family settings
    of the console.
