I have this weird problem where browsing applications force close themselves? I have found a mini work around and that is to go and rename the exe file to something like "Chrome2.exe" or "Brave2.exe"

What is going on how do i fix it? Everytime i open these apps it just closes and i dont understand what to do? I have reset my computer, i have reinstalled all of these apps multiple times. Im very confused and would like some help, this only started happening recently so i dont know what was different between now and then.

The only browser that works fine on the laptop as of now is edge.

Please help!!!

Hi ,

Well, generally the block can be applied to everyone in the family in the configuration, which I think your parent has to check if in the Microsoft family system you are considered a minor, perhaps due to a date error.

He may also try to remove you or re-add you, you can correct the dates.

Check if the consent system is active.

1- To remove consent from a family member's account,

2- Visit family.microsoft.com and sign in to your Microsoft account.

3- Scroll down and select Manage my child's profile information.

4- Find your family member and select Remove consent for this child's account.

Unfortunately, you were right to distrust the Microsoft Family system because there was nothing preventing you from doing so other than being in the family system.

The last option is to contact your father's Microsoft support and inform them of the situation to see if there is any error.

This is not a Windows problem, but rather a problem with the Microsoft family system.

    Hi ,

    Do the following: use the local account but with the Microsoft account connected to the Microsoft Store.

    Open the Microsoft Store > Click on the user icon > click on login > enter your Microsoft account and log in > when you log in, select the option to only log in to Microsoft applications so that it does not transform the local account into a Microsoft account.
