Limited hours for kids[Parental control]

Here is how to restrict use to times that you yourself decided :
  • To begin, each person you want to restrict the use of the PC must have its own account
  • Click "Start " then "All Programs" "Accessories" and finally click on "Command Prompt".
  • In the window that opens, then enter the following command:
  • Net user[name]/time[days and hours]
  • Replace[name] by the name of the user for which you want to restrict the use of the computer and then[day and time] by the restriction values.
  • For example, to prohibit the user to log on 'Alok' weekdays between 9 AM  and 20 PM and weekends between 18 PM and 20 PM, type the following command:
  • Alok net user / time: Monday-Friday , 09:00-20:00, Saturday-Sunday , 18:00-20:00
  • You can also apply these rules for each day of the week and to go faster to just write the initials on day like this (for my Tuesday and Wednesday for me).
  • Alok net user / time: L, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.; Ma, 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.; Me, 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m.
  • Then confirm with OK
  • The day you want to remove all restrictions so that a user can log in anytime, enter the command:
  • Alok net user / time: all
