Restricting System Time Changes

HomeGuard effectively blocks system time modifications to prevent users from circumventing scheduled application and web blocking rules.

This feature is crucial for maintaining the integrity of time-based usage limits, ensuring that users cannot simply roll back the device's clock to bypass active restrictions. The system time blocking feature is highly configurable, allowing administrators to tailor these settings for individual Windows profiles based on their specific needs.

Additionally, HomeGuard offers the flexibility to exclude specific administrative users from these restrictions, providing a customizable approach that balances firm policy control with administrative necessity. This guarantees that your productivity rules remain unbroken.

How to Allow Specific Users to Change System Time

Open the settings section of HomeGuard and navigate to the "Main Settings" page. Scroll down to the "System Time Changes" section and verify that the "Don't Allow Any User to Change System Time" option is toggled on.

If you need to grant permission to a specific profile, simply add that username to the exception list located directly below the toggle.
