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!!!

    I am also very angry because when i'm trying to play minecraft like a regular person the pop up appears and throws me off guard. When i go to the services.msc the family features option isn't there. The pop up keeps yapping about signing in so i "don't miss out" I can't with Microsoft

    I hope you've found a workaround by now, but in the case of Jason's second suggestion, look for Parental Controls instead of Microsoft Family Features. That did it for me.
