I want to change my child's MS password

Thank you for taking the time to post this on the Xbox Forums. We understand that you are currently inquiring about how to change your child Microsoft password.

You simply need to go to https://account.microsoft.com/ and then More Actions>Change Password

I hope this helps.

Hello goboilers777,

Thank you for keeping us updated. The passkey is only for the Xbox. If the child knows the email address and password, the child will be able to change the family settings from a cell phone or computer. The best way to manage the security of the family settings
is to set up the passkey on the console as recommended above and
change the password of the adult account. If the child has access to the
security information of the account, the child will be able to reset the password. In the event of attempting to change the password, the Microsoft account will send a verification code to the security information of the account. As long as the child does
not have access to the security information, access to the password or access to the passkey; the child will not be able to change the family settings.

I did change my ms account password?

ok now your confusing us

lets start all over again

"My particular scenario has pre-teen girls that will know how to go into account settings and change it. And i do not want that pls."

child accounts are locked to parental windows live id requireing you or the child to enter the parental password

this can be done at www.passport.com and manage your child accounts and change your parental windows live id password



its easier if you have a family account and it can be change at the family center and only the master account cna change those settings

if your children want to go and download m rated demos no parental setting will allow them to do that

they must wait till they are 18

thats privacy settings LOL

they can login all they want and play online

PARENTAL settings cannot be changed by the child user unless you give them the password

this requires the parental password

child accounts cannot change to adults magically

you can change privacy and family settings with the parental password which i hope you do not give to your children

you have have it so they cannot post any info on the bio



again please look at the family account and the family settings link i posted previously
