Control and schedule Internet and computer usage for your children.
Empower them while ensuring their safety on the Internet.
While configuring the Parental Control settings, ensure that each child has a standard user account. You'll need an Administrator user account to configure the settings. For instructions on how to create Administrator and Standard Accounts, click here.
Administrator User Account allows you to install and remove an application on the system or change any settings, including Parental Control software. This ensures that only you as a parent have full control over your system.
To create an Administrators account, follow these steps:You can protect the settings and configurations of Quick Heal by turning Password Protection on. Password Protection ensures that your settings are protected from modification by any unauthorized users.
To enable Password Protection, follow these steps:
The standard/restricted/limited user accounts prevents other users from taking full control of the computer. This helps prevent a user from making any changes that may affect security privileges.
