    Hello ale64,

    You won't be able to do anything affecting other users on the PC without being an administrator.

    If you are an adult in your Microsoft Family group, you would be able to restrict any child members on any devices that they sign in to with the same Microsoft account.

    Hi there
    I know not always possible but it's absolutely not a good idea to let kids share an adults computer.

    There are a number of ways -- probably the simplest would be to set up a secondary access point which the kids would log on to and from there you possibnly could set up an internet gateway or proxy server which would block websites.

    This would start you off -- there's a load more articles on the web

    Use OpenDNS and set the DNS in the Gateway, if not one that your ISP has given you. Otherwise you have to set the DNS settings in the Registry and lock the user from making any Network changes, etc..
