I found a blog post online which suggests a workaround ( )īut this fix only works for Windows 7 as adding the users as local administrators doesn't populate them into the Family Safety user list. The only account listed is the Administrator local account and none of the domain accounts are listed. When trying to enable Family Safety for her account, it is not listed. Now states User Accounts and Family Safety in Control Panel instead of just User Accounts and the Family Safety settings are available. This was resolved by enabling the GPO setting Make Family Safety Available to Domain Computers (I paraphrased the name of the setting). One of the computers is used by my daughter who was previously using Windows 7 with Windows Live Family Safety before I upgraded theĪfter domain joining the client, the Family Safety settings disappeared from Control Panel. I have a Windows Server 2012 Essentials domain with several clients connected to the Essentials server as domain members. Before I begin, I have searched for answers for this problem and the main thread people seem to point to as the answer ( )Īpplies to Windows 7 and doesn't work for Windows 8.
