Xbox One: Set up a guest account using a guest key

1. Turn on your Xbox One and press the Menu button on the controller.
2. Select the "Settings" item.
3. If you scroll all the way to the right on the screen, you will find the "Guest settings" there. Click on the "Create guest key" option.
4. Now define a 6-digit code that differs from your main code and confirm it by entering it again. Make a note of the code and keep it in a safe place.
5. With the "Guest settings" you can then set restrictions such as an age restriction under "Access to content and apps" for your guests.
6. By default, however, guest accounts have full access to all content.
7. If you activate the option "Hide listings in search, in stores and apps", certain content is completely hidden for guests.
