Similar to any Computer Protection for Kids software this software also would require you to create a Parent Account while setup and then assign the child access based on your preferences. The software uses the Windows User Accounts feature where in you can create different accounts with security or access levels and also a Guest Account for your friends to login. Hence each child you would like to access the computer should have a separate account setup with their own personalized desktop and documents folders.
