Every time I turn on my computer, the "sign in Microsoft Family Features" pops up. I have tried:

  • Removing myself from family group per https://account.microsoft.com/family/home (already listed as an adult there)
  • Checking start up options (doesn't show up)
  • Looking at uninstalling Microsoft Family Features (doesn't show up)
  • Deleting the Microsoft Family Feature folder
  • Telling my firewall not to let it through

Every time I did one of these steps, I turned off and back on my computer, and still each time it persisted. Make it stop!!!

    Hi, I've got the same issue, but I don't have the box that one should uncheck. Am I just dumb, or is there any possibility that I just don't have it?

    I'm on Windows 11

    The only thing that eventually worked for me was reformatting the entire computer. I've tried EVERYTHING else listed here and elsewhere, but finally after reformatting, its' gone.

    I managed to get rid of it by going to the same services.msc window but instead of micorsoft family features (which wasnt there) I stopped ''Parental Controls'' and it hasnt shown up again in the last 20 minutes

    This is for the people that already did the two common fixes listes throughout this thread.
    for any germans: please search and disable "Jugendschutz" as that programm is translated.
