Check out their quite easy and powerful content restrictions.
Suggestion: Have someone else have the password (or half and half with a spouse) and do the following:
Lock installing apps + remove browser + add apps you need (possible rules: no games, no sports, no entertainment, etc.).
[Occasionally an app will have a built in browser/or need to access a certain website - just go back in to settings (with password) and add that website].
There is time restrictions and more features too.
(May not be enough for teenagers - consult your own advisers - this solution sure beats doing nothing and there is no excuse)

gentech
I have Livigent (which I think changed to GenTech). There was an app I downloaded and wasn't working. I called them up, the guy tried all different ways to unblock it. He even removed all filtering and asked me to try Facebook in the browser to see that the filtering was removed and the app still wouldn't work. Eventually he said that he couldn't help.

Anyone have experience creating "child accounts" with Windows 10 users? There is option to block "inappropriate websites". How does it compare to K9?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

K9 isn't officially supported in Windows 10.
But how does Windows blocking of inappropriate sites compare to K9?

Also I would like to use Windows users time limits for myself but already have a customized desktop as the primary account. Is there any way to A)Create a new adult account and then convert my current account to a child account? B)Create a child account with the same desktop and access to same documents as my current account?
