One of the aspects that worries many parents is that their children, especially if they are young, access inappropriate content for their age online. We have seen how there are many platforms whose access is very easy that are full of these types of content that are not appropriate for children. Therefore, parents are looking for measures to solve this. One of them is parental control.

The way to activate this parental control in Windows 10 is very simple. Thanks to this function we will be able to restrict what the smallest of the house do on the network. In addition, we have the possibility of monitor everything they do from an email account that we associate with the account. So we are informed at all times about what they do.
To activate parental control in Windows 10 we have to follow the following route: Settings - Accounts - Family and other users. Within the latter is where we find the option to create a new user to whom we can restrict the activity.

First select that we do not have the access data of this person. While in the second we must select add to a user without Microsoft account. So we create the account and add a password that we must know at all times. You can see the steps in these images:
