    Xbox Family Settings Query


    I have an Xbox family setup, 2 adults, 2 children. One of my children has downloaded a game from the Microsoft store, but if I try and play it rom my profile it won't let me unless I then sign on as my child! Surely as the Account owner, and adult, this
    should be unnecessary.

    How can I change this, without uninstalling the game entirely, and therefore losing all the saved content of the game on other's profiles

    :)

    Allow a 'child' access to the internet to play games on line

    ok thanks - already aware of that on xbox 360. My query is for xbox 1 and setting permissions for child access to the internet via the 'family' heading

    Xbox family is only to limit what your children can and cant do on the console, It has nothing to do with who can share what games. Each account has a collection of games. If you want all accounts to play 1 game. You would have to buy all games on that 1
    account then set up THAT account to share to all the rest of the with the
    home xbox feature
    . This link has information on what it is and how to set it up to save your family some cash in the long run. If you need more information you always welcome to post to the forums!

    Happy gaming!

    The account that owns the game (the child's account) would need to set the console as their Home console. https://support.xbox.com/en-US/games/game-setup/my-home-xbox

    Allowing Child Account to Add Friends

    Hi,

    Adults in the family can manage settings online and these changes will be applied to any Windows 10 device the child signs in.

    You can refer to the article Set up your family to
    know more of what you could manage.

    In the article Add members to your Microsoft family,
    there is a note that if the person that you're adding is already part of another family, they'll first need to be removed from that family.

    Hope you find the answer to your queries in these articles.
