How to remove a Computer from Family Safety

I am recycling a Toshiba laptop from my Granddaughter who is a member of family safety. I want to give the system to an adult daughter to replace her aging laptop.

Current State:

I added the adult daughter's account to the system and successfully logged in

I removed the Granddaughter's account from the Toshiba; she is over 18 so I removed her from the family safety membership

Every time I boot the laptop to the Adult Daughter's account, I get a pop up message: Ask for permission  from an adult .. Widows Shell experience

So, how do I clear this message and de-couple the PC form  family Safety?

Thanks

    Hi,

    1. Reboot Windows in safe mode.
    2. Open this location in Explorer: C:\Windows\System32\AppLocker (possibly replace C: with the drive that has your Windows installed on it).
    3. Delete the contents of the 'AppLocker' folder.
    4. Reboot to get out of safe mode.
