How to prevent Kids from Disabling Family Safety Extensions/Addons in Browsers - GoFuckYourself.com

Hey guys,

I have a techy question here, a friend of mine has installed a family safety software for there kids which blocks user access to certain forbidden websites. Only problem is after months of utilizing the software my friend realized that the users would still be able to access content through a loophole (if they figured it out).

You see the software filters out forbidden content by installing a Addon or Extension on Chrome, Internet Explorer and FireFox.

All the users would have to do to get around the extension which blocks forbidden websites is disable or un-install it, then enable or re-install it after the deed is done.

Does any of you techy guys know how to disable the ability for a user to disable or uninstall Addons or Extensions in Internet Explorer, FireFox and Chrome.

The OS its running on is Windows 10

Any help from you guys that will patch up this loop hole, will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Remove them at the router and never give the kids the router password.

Almost anything installed on the user machine will be able to be bypassed.

As Mr. Pheer said, block the sites you want to block at the router.
