Screen time feature not working on Family Safety

Anonymous

The device is a PC with Windows 11. Device added to and shows up for family member on Family Safety App. Web and Search feature works but Screen Time is not. The device is shown as No Usage. When I initially set up the PC, I had my kid as the Administrator but then changed him to standard user and myself as the Administrator. It seems like once I made that change is when the Screen Time feature stop working. I tried to remove him from Family and re-adding him back in. This did not work. Also tried installing updates and rebooting but nothing works. Any suggestions on what I can do to fix this issue. Trying to figure out if it is a setting on my side that can be fixed or if it is just a bug on MS side. I have a Norton Anti-Virus but I don’t think this would be the root of the cause.

Thanks

    I checked in Task Manager under Services, and when logged in as my son, see that "WpcMonSvc" is running. When looking in "Details" tab, it has UACvirtualisation disabled, but I assume that is right. So this doesn't seem to be the issue..?

    Also, I think this seems to be a server side issue with Family Safety, as the same issue has occurred for both my kids - screen time stopped logging in the Family Safety app/MS account last Wednesday. They use different devices, so it can't be a device issue?

    Does anyone know how to raise this as a support ticket to Microsoft?

    I have been through the online chat support, and they could not suggest any fix.

    They told me posting here would raise a ticket: https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/e0919d32-477c-ef11-a4e7-6045bdb238dc

    But this is just another public foruum.

    I want to raise a formal ticket...

    Can confirm posting here does nothing. I follow four different issues on different Microsoft products. All threads going 6 months or more. No fixes from Microsoft.

    Having the same issue. Cannot see any activity of my sons Win11 PC since Wednesday, even though he is using it.

    This is really **** and seems like a global problem for Microsoft, which may not even be aware, since nobody can report it....
