Laptop website blocking not working
4.5
Restricted websites are still accessible in the browser.
Symptoms
- Adult sites accessible
- Blocked URLs open
- No filter
Possible Causes
- Third-party browser (Chrome/Firefox)
- VPN usage
- DNS bypass
Step-by-Step Fix
1
Use Microsoft Edge
Windows Family Safety web filtering only works natively in Edge.
2
Block Other Browsers
Prevent the child from using Chrome or Firefox if you want Edge filtering.
3
Check for VPNs
Ensure no VPN or Proxy is being used to bypass the filter.
When to See a Technician
Family Safety web filtering is browser-specific; it won't stop a child using Chrome unless you block Chrome itself.
