    Account on someone elses PC


    A whiIe ago I added my xbox account to a friend’s laptop because it gave me the standard “add you account to access your account features and track achievements and all that?” messge. I clicked yes abd after that his account could not access things like the web browser. He has fixed that, but several things are still locked away. I removed the computer from my devices list on the microsoft website but I dont know if that has fixed every problem. I think the locking out might have somthing to do with all the restrictions my mom has set on my account. Are there any other steps I need to take or has this fixed the problem?

    :)

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
