Jelly Bean 4.3 Restricted Profile Problem

Greetings all,

Recently got a Nexus 7, 2012 and updated to to Jelly Bean 4.3. Love it!

I created a restricted user for my child. When you do this the admin. user is blocked with a pin prevented the restricted user to gain admin. access.

The problem was that a game he likes (Avengers) cannot be accessed in the restricted profile, even though I toggled it "On" and it shows up in his profile. So, I figured I would remove the restricted profile and use a parental control app. When I removed the restricted profile, it did not remove the pin requirement to gain access as there is now only one user or profile. I would like this pin requirement removed. It shows up when you wake the device from sleep mode or power it on.
Does anyone know how this can be done?

Thanks!
 
Go to Settings > Security > Screen Lock. Confirm your PIN and then choose another screen lock option (you probably want Slide).
