The first is to uninstall any browser add-ons or extensions. This will help you see more videos. If you want to see more mature content, you can also disable Restricted Mode on all of your devices. If you use a tablet or mobile phone, you&#8217;ll need to disable Restricted Mode on every device.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disable_browser_add-ons_and_extensions\"><\/span>Disable browser add-ons and extensions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to turn restricted mode off on YouTube, you&#8217;ll need to disable the add-ons and extensions installed on your browser. You can also clear your cache and cookies and restart your computer to see if that resolves the issue. Lastly, you&#8217;ll need to sign in with your YouTube account and click on the &#8220;profile picture&#8221; on the top right corner. Once there, click on &#8220;Restricted Mode&#8221; and turn it off.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using a computer in a public institution, you might be unable to disable the Restricted Mode feature. If you&#8217;re using a corporate or school computer, the system administrator may have turned on the Restricted Mode feature. However, you can still disable the Restricted Mode by disabling browser extensions and add-ons on your own personal device.<\/p>\n<p>If the restrictions are being imposed by your network administrator, you can disable the restrictions on YouTube by disabling the network administrator&#8217;s settings. However, this method is only suitable for users who have access to a private network. You should note that your network administrator&#8217;s settings apply to all users on the network, so you must be sure you have a valid reason to access content on that network.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disable_YouTubes_Restricted_Mode\"><\/span>Disable YouTube&#8217;s Restricted Mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to disable YouTube&#8217;s Restricted Mode, first log in to your YouTube account. Then, click your profile picture. Click the option called &#8220;Enable Restricted Mode&#8221; and click it. On the next page, click the toggle switch next to Restricted Mode. Turn the toggle switch OFF to remove restricted mode. If you need to enable this mode again, reboot your device. You can also contact your network administrator to enable it for you.<\/p>\n<p>To disable Restricted Mode, first log out of your Google account on all devices. Then, log in to your primary and secondary devices. Finally, update the YouTube app. Follow the steps above and you should be able to access the app without restrictions. This is especially useful if you have multiple accounts. Once the restricted mode has been disabled, you should be able to watch YouTube videos. You can also watch YouTube videos on your primary device, if you have a secondary device.<\/p>\n<p>Depending on the type of organization you belong to, you may not be able to disable YouTube&#8217;s Restricted Mode. If you have an account with an administrative level, this step may be difficult for you. On the other hand, if you use a personal account, the steps listed above should work. You can relax knowing that your children cannot disable this feature. These steps are not applicable to organization accounts.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disable_Google_Account\"><\/span>Disable Google Account<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To disable the restriction on YouTube, you must go to your account settings and choose the option called Restricted Mode. You can toggle this mode only if your Google account is linked to your family link. If your child does not use a family link, then only the parent can turn it off. If the restriction has been put in place by mistake, you can reset the setting and try it again. However, this will require you to restart your device.<\/p>\n<p>In order to disable the restriction on YouTube, you must log out of all your other devices and sign in with your primary Google account. If you are using a school or organization-issued account, you may not be able to disable this restriction on your primary Google account. The best way to resolve this issue is to clear your browsing history on your primary device and then log in with the secondary device&#8217;s Google account. Make sure the browser and YouTube app are updated.<\/p>\n<p>In order to turn off the restriction on YouTube, you need to sign in with your Google account again. After you&#8217;ve signed in, you should see your profile icon. Tap on this icon and select your settings. On the right side, click on the Profile icon. Select the menu that looks like an arrow. Then, click on the &#8220;Profile&#8221; tab. Click the settings icon. You can also disable the restriction by clicking the &#8220;X&#8221; icon on the top right corner. This will make the website accessible for everyone.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dtQat5HNYrI\" width=\"411\" height=\"230\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Turn Restricted Mode Off on YouTube There are a few ways to disable YouTube&#8217;s Restricted Mode.
