The February Revolution of 1917 is the revolution that ended the rule of the Tsars. The October Revolution staged by Lenin and the Bolsheviks ended the rule of the Provisional Government rather than that of the Tsars.

The Communists took over.
The February Revolution of 1917 resulted in the abdication of Tsar Nicholas II and the setting up of the Provisional Government.The February Revolution, not the October (Bolshevik/Communist) Revolution ended the rule of the Czars. Tsar Nicholas II abdicated the throne on March 2 (Russian calendar; March 15 on the western Gregorian calendar), 1917. The Bolshevik/Communist Revolution occurred eight months after the Tsar stepped down ending the rule of the czars.
The February Revolution of 1917 in Russia put an end to the rule of the Tsars but it did not establish a communist government. The communist government was not established until later that year in the October Revolution.
The Bolsheviks ended the rule of the Provisional Government in Russia by the October Revolution in 1917 then ended the lives of Tsar Nicholas and his entire family in July 1918.The Bolsheviks did not end the rule of the Tsar. The February 1917 Revolution is what ended that.
No, they are not and have not been in power since 1917.
The workers, soldiers and peasants of Petrograd and other cities ended the rule of the Tsars by sparking the February Revolution of 1917 in Russia. Thousands of people took to the streets demonstrating against the Tsar's running of the war, his inability to end constant food shortages and his refusal to make land reforms. When Tsar Nicholas realized he had lost control of the military and could not stop the rioting in Petrograd and other cities, he abdicated the throne in favor of his brother Michael, who promptly refused it. The Provisional Government then took over. Lenin and the Bolsheviks did NOT end the rule of the Tsars. Lenin and the Bolsheviks overthrew Alexander Kerensky and the Russian Provisional Government in the October Revolution. The rule of the Tsars had already been ended eight months earlier.
