Windows Settings → Accounts → Other users (or Family) → Add account. For an existing account, choose 'Change account type' and pick 'Standard user'. If you link an administrator account to a child, the PC shows a warning.

Updates and uninstalling

New versions install automatically. PC-Timer can only be removed from the app list in Windows Settings by an administrator, and we email you if it is.
