Parental Controls Are Blocking Chrome browser
(you know you might find something offensive on internet so its best you dont browse at all)

Microsoft is making it harder to use Chrome on Windows. The culprit? This time, it's Windows' Family Safety feature. Since early this month, the parental control measure has prevented users from opening Chrome.
>Strangely, Microsofts own browser appear not to be affected. Instead of blocking Microsoft browser, what happens is, Timmy, 7, will get web messages on screen "this site is blocked" on just about any site Microsoft have pre-determined to not be for kids.
Redditors first reported the Chrome issue on June 3. u/Witty-Discount-2906 posted that Chrome crashed on Windows 11. "Just flashes quickly, unable to open with no error message," they wrote. Another user chimed in with a correct guess.
"This may be related to Parental Controls," u/duk242 surmised. "I've had nine students come see the IT Desk in the last hour saying Chrome won't open."
He was right.
