Children who have received free access to a computer can cause irreparable harm not only to their fragile children's psyche, physical health (vision, scoliosis, etc.), but also to the computer, operating system and software. Therefore, access to the computer for children should be limited.
It is necessary
- A computer;
- sandbox software;
- programs that control access to sites
Instructions
Step 1
Include a separate account for the child. Go to Start> Control Panel> User Accounts> Change User Account - assign a password for your account and administrator rights. Return to the "User Accounts" section and select "Create Account". Create a new limited user. Save. Now the child will be able to log in with his "user", and a limited account will not allow him to install, remove or change software and protect the operating system from destructive actions.
Step 2
Install the sandbox software. After the user has worked in and out of the sandbox, the operating system returns to the state it was before starting to work in the sandbox. Any changes that were made willingly or unwillingly in the operating system disappear without consequences for it. It is used as a last resort to protect the computer from any user action.
Step 3
Install a program that controls access to sites with unwanted information. You can simply turn on protection against access to inappropriate content in the Internet settings. The program that controls access to sites has its own list of sites to which access is allowed, and you can add your sites to this list.
Step 4
Install a program that monitors the time your child spends at the computer. Configure in it the amount of time that he can continuously spend at the computer, as well as the period of rest. Set periods by computer (your account). Set the total number of hours and minutes that the child can spend at the computer during the day, week.
