Previous to this announcement, the support page titled Fix family features after Windows 10 upgrade said that if you had previously set up family features for a child account and then upgraded to Windows 10, there are a few steps you need to take to turn on family settings again. This means that your child will need to sign in to Windows 10 with a Microsoft account, and then you’ll need to add that account to your family group at family.microsoft.com. You should know that the new page, with the added mention of Windows 11 titled Fix family features after Windows 10/11 upgrade says: Without a doubt, this was certainly a long time overdue and perhaps the firm felt the need to do this now as Windows 11 22H2 Moment 2 update will be available to all very soon via Patch Tuesday tomorrow. Know that there is no change in the set-up process though and involves the Microsoft account (MSA). You can follow the steps in the official guide here on Microsoft’s site.
