Microsoft: prohibits third-party browsers and does it for your children

Microsoft reportedly updated its family protection filters by blocking some rival browsers, saying the reason is because the kids thought.

The changes are part of her effort to end the incompatibility caused when non-Microsoft browsers violate Windows 10's restrictive family settings.browsers

Which brøwsers can be excluded?

But of course the and Firefox is one of the first and others follow. Microsoft doesn't list the browsers it blocks (for kids always) by name, it just says it blocks browsers that don't filter the web.

"To keep your children safer, we will automatically block these browsers on their devices."

Microsoft previously recommended to parents to use the most popular in the world Internet Explorer and recently Edge.

But this time the ban is automatic, like says Microsoft in the announcement of change.

The ban, though automatic, is fortunately not irreversible: parents can add to the white list the browsers they want to use in addition to Windows.
