    Game not downloading after approval on Ask a Parent feature


    My son wants Minecraft on his XBOX One and went to purchase it on the Microsoft Store. It brought up the Ask a Parent feature which we followed and I purchased it on my phone.

    It is now showing as 'owned' on his account, but the game hasn't started downloading. I clicked on it again in the store and it just keeps bringing up the Ask a Parent screen.

    Anybody got any idea how to proceed from here?

    Thanks.

    :)

    My password

    Yeah if you it's asking for a password to accept the terms of use then that means the parental account needs to approve. Make sure you know the password for the parental WLID.

    Promoting my child account to adult account?

    Ok i searched the internet already, and found this solution. It doesn't work. I go into settings, they ask me to sign in again. After this, they need parental approval is needed. So I need to sign into my parents account. I am over 18. I sign into my parent's
    account. Then their is a glitch. I have been struggling for hours on this.

    Hi Hugh_Carter,



    Thank you for reaching out to us here on the forums regarding this situation.



    Your family settings may require an adult's approval before a child account can make a purchase. If you leave the Ask a parent feature on, you can continue to make sure a child doesn't make a purchase using an adult's credit card, and you can monitor the type of content they want to buy.



    If you do choose to turn Ask a parent off, the child account can make purchases without an adult’s approval. If you want to turn this feature off, follow these steps:

    • Sign in to your Family page with an adult Microsoft account.
    • Find the child's name and select Content restrictions.
    • Under the Ask a parent section, switch Needs adult approval to buy things to Off.
    • If you leave the adult approval option On, you can approve or deny the child's purchase requests through email or on account.microsoft.com/family.

    Best,

    XBF Drew
