My account says restricted due to profile picture. It was a picture of my son. I changed it but as i sit here and think about it the more it pisses me off. If you have any questions or concerns as to the nature or meaning of any of my profile pictures please feel free to contact me and voice your concerns! Please reinstate my account immediately before I take legal action. Their was absolutely nothing wrong with my picture. My account needs to reinstated immediately to further avoid any legal action from myself

    Hello,

    This restriction is applied automatically when Microsoft’s safety system flags a

    profile picture. It can also happen by mistake, even with normal photos.

    Changing the picture does not remove the restriction immediately.

    Your account must be reviewed by the Microsoft Account support team.

    Please contact Microsoft support and request a review of the profile picture restriction:

    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/contactus

    Only the account support team can lift this restriction.

    Community members cannot access or modify account status.

    Your account will be reinstated after the review is completed.
