Step 2: Click on "User accounts and family safety". You will see something like below picture


Now click on "Family Safety." Select the user account for which you want to apply a time limitation by clicking its icon.
Step 3: Select "Time Limits" To apply a certain time limitation on an account, click "Set time allowance" then use the drop-down menus provided to select a specific number of hours and minutes your child or Brother or Friend is allowed on the computer.

You can set a different time allowance for weekdays and weekends. In order to block certain spans of time, such as the hours during which your child/friend/brother is supposed to be doing homework, click "Curfew" then tap the white boxes for the hours you want to block on specific days.

For example, if you want to block the hour of 5PM on Monday and Friday, tap the hour block on those days to turn it blue, which will block it. So this was a simple tutorial to set time limits in windows computer that logs out your account after specific period of time that you set.
