Select the Access tab. Here you can setup a schedule for your child’s use of the computer or the internet. To activate the schedule, tick Enable Schedule Access. Choose what the schedule is for, the entire PC or the internet, by ticking accordingly.

Time limit: You can choose to limit the time the computer and/or Internet connection can be used within the timeframe that allows access to the account or the Internet.

WARNING! The profile is active as soon as it is created, so the access is restricted immediately! If you are setting this on your main Windows account, you can lock yourself out! Make sure you either first disable the profile by clicking on the profile name and choosing Disable, or you only do this on a Windows User account, different from the main one.
