    Security breach! Log in to your work or school account. Created by your IT department???


    When I try to sign in to my Microsoft account, I get to choose from two options.


    1. Log in to a work or school account Created by your IT department.
    2 Log in with a personal account.

    My question is what does "Work or School Account Created by Your IT Department" mean?


    I am not a member of any organization or employee of the company.

    I use an account and a computer for my own personal needs.
    So what does it mean: "Created by your IT department"?
    What IT department?

    I will just add that if I try to log in with a "Work or school account" and enter a password, it is reported that it is wrong!

    What is it?

    :)

  2. Can't remove a Work or School account from Windows 10

    I found I could not delete the work or school account, because it was likely controlled by a domain controller, which I could no longer log onto.

    I found the solution below DOES work, as described by the user Pvandamcom2

    Steps:

    - In Control Panel, User Accounts, select your account

    - Select "instead log on with a local account" and follow the steps

    - Then logon, go back to accounts, and go to Access to work and school account

    - Click Disconnect for the Work or School Account. The work account dissappeared

    - Last step, go back and change logon to be with Microsoft Account instead of
    local account

    The work account is no longer displayed

  3. Notification about work or school account whenever I start windows

    Recently I have been getting the following notification whenever I log in to windows 10:

    However, when I go there (or search for solutions online) I tend to end up with a step where I need to log into the specific account.

    However, it is not my account but of someone who used my laptop recently, and who I don't want to bother with this.

    I have full rights to my laptop, and am looking for a way to get rid of the notification.

    Can't add a school account?

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community. I understand the inconvenience you are facing. I will certainly help you with this.

    I suggest you to try the below given methods and check if it works:

    Method 1:

    This issue may arise due to some file corruption, I suggest you to try running DISM tool and check if it works. To do so, refer the following steps:

    • Open command prompt by pressing Windows key + X and selecting “Command prompt admin”.
    • In command prompt, type the following commands and press Enter after each command:
    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth

    DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

    • Close the command prompt and restart the PC and check if it works.
    Method 2:

    I suggest you to try to create a new user account and check if you still face this issue in new user account. To create it perform the steps mentioned below.

    • Press Windows key + X key and select
      Control Panel.
    • Click on User accounts and Family Safety.
    • Click on User Account and then click on Manage Accounts.
    • Now click on Add a new user and follow the instructions.
    • Sign out from the current User account and log-in using new User account and check if issue persist.
    Hope this information helps. Please post back with the results, we will be glad to assist you further.

    Thank you.
