    Kids licenses in Parents Xbox account


    My kids were too young to have email accounts when I bought two licenses of Minecraft for Windows 10. I just bought them new computers and now I would like to install Minecraft onto their computers. I see the two licenses in my account.xbox.com account,
    however I don't know how to:

    1. download Minecraft onto their computers
    2. allow them use the licenses that I purchased for them
    Can you help?

    Best way to gift a used Xbox 360?

    It's great that you want to make such an amazing gift for your friend's grandson.

    While others already described how to remove your account, please help your friend make an account for himself (an adult account), and a separate (child) account for his grandson.

    Some (grand) parents make the mistake of using their own adult email account and let the kid play with that.

    However, by using their own adult account for the kid, the kid is regarded as an adult for the console, and the parent is unable to prevent the kid from talking to internet strangers for example, or limit the playtime. Also, this prevents the kid from going
    on an (accidental) shopping spree, and buying stuff from the Xbox Marketplace with the parent's credit card or bank account.

    So please advise your friend, that when they create an account for his grandchild, that he (or the father of the kid) should create their own adult Microsoft Account and then a separate child account (by giving the kid's actual birthdate during account creation).

    After the child account is created, the parent should then go to
    https://account.microsoft.com/family
    and add the child account to their family.

    That way, the parent can set permissions and privacy options to make the Xbox a safe place to play.

    Additionally, this avoids later issues, where the kid would be able to access the parent's email or other Microsoft Services, if the parents let the kid play on their account. Later, you can't move the kid's gaming account away from the parent email account,
    without the parent's Microsoft Account being deleted.

    Can I retain gold games after ending my gold membership and have a family member go gold?

    You could always just change your gamertag to something your son would want and just gift him the account. ...
    This might circumvent parental controls the parent has set up for the kid and make the kid a full grown adult that can't be controlled or restricted on the Xbox anymore.

    Also, the kid will then have control over the Microsoft account, meaning the kid can access the parent emails, OneDrive storage and anything else associated with the account.

    So do NOT do that.

    but honestly parents should pay attention to there kids do on xbox

    [/quote]

    Realistically, it has absolutely nothing to do with parents monitoring their kid's on Xbox LIVE. If they properly use and adjust the Children Account settings, then they shouldn't have to worry about coming into contact with the images and scenarios
    that they are attempting to get their kids not to view.
