Are you having trouble playing a game on your Xbox 360 due to parental controls? Are you unable to access it because of a passcode that you don’t know? Well, worry no more as we have the solution for you!
Michael Cromp, a tech enthusiast, recently encountered the same issue with his Xbox 360. After attempting various button combinations and creating new profiles, he turned to YouTube for help. Unfortunately, he found that the videos were not helpful as the last four digits of the passcode were unique to each console.
He then decided to contact Microsoft and found a solution that doesn’t require opening up the console or using an RGH system. All he had to do was go to account.microsoft.com, register his device, input the serial number of his Xbox 360, and accept the terms. Once done, the website provided him with the reset passcode.
Michael then entered the button combination and reset the system settings. This returned everything back to the factory defaults, and he was able to set up everything again, without any parental control restrictions. He loaded Aurora back up and inserted the game. Finally, he was able to play the game without any issues.
If you’re facing the same issue, simply go to account.microsoft.com, register your device, input the serial number, and accept the terms. Microsoft will provide you with the reset passcode, and you can follow the steps outlined above to reset your system settings.
We hope this helps you unlock your Xbox 360 family settings and get you back to enjoying your games without any restrictions.
