After recently upgrading to Mountain Lion I now have the process named “parentalcontrolsd” running 24/7 even though I do NOT use any parental controls.
58174 | parentalcontrolsd | root | 98.7 | 9 | 72.3 MB | Intel (64 bit) | 138.4 MB |
Simple work-around: remove all settings from parental controls
- Disable parental controls on all users.
- Delete the folder /Library/Application Support/Apple/ParentalControls
- Restart the Mac
- Enable parental controls again (if needed).
