No, as a standard PC installation, the kids do however login under their Xbox user profile.

Wifi. But by switching profiles on the same machine in the same location I can get Fortnite to work on my profile but not the kid's 'child' profile. Have also tried on wired connection with same result - works on my profile but not on my kid's 'child' profiles. I'm thinking it is a W10 issue to...

Hi - my kids keep getting the below when they try to launch Fortnite on their pcs. This is a new issue, they had no problems until a few days ago. I I log in to admin acc on same pcs and I can launch Fortnite just fine. If anyone can suggest a fix I'd be most grateful. Thanks!
