Windows 10: admin account email no longer exists

The email account for the administrator of the pc no longer exists how do you update administrator account email

:)

 

Can't delete "emails and apps" account that no longer exists

I have an email account through a university I no longer attend that is included in my list of accounts. I receive constant notifications saying that I need to "update the password" for this account, but I can't because the account no longer exists. I also
can't delete the account from Windows because when I click "Manage" it sends me to a login page for the nonexistent email. Is there a way to get around this and remove the account from my computer?

 

Unauthorized Emails from my account?

It is more than likely that your email account was hacked, either by a virus sniffing your password, or just simply hacked.

Either way, change your password on your email account. Unfortunately the damage by already be done. They already have your contact list and your email address associated with that contact list. There is nothing stopping them from sending out emails using their own SMTP servers to everyone on your contact list and claiming the emails are from your email address. They don't actually have to have access to your yahoo account or even any yahoo server to send emails to people that come from your address.

 

No longer have access to admin email account

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



We understand your concern as you are looking for an option to access the Microsoft admin account but you don’t have access to the associate Microsoft email account
that the admin was set up with.



When you say "I no longer have access to the email account that the admin was set up with" are you not able to login to Windows PC and does the PC has any other admin user account.



However, this is to inform you that due to security policy, if you don’t have access to the email account that you used to setup the Microsoft admin user account, then unfortunately you won’t be able to access the user account unless
you remember the password/pin you have setup.



If you don’t remember the password of the email account, then you can reset the password on
Reset your password



If you still have issues in recovering the account, then we would suggest you to fill the
ACSR form for recovering the account



In addition, you can also refer this article to
Reset or recover your Microsoft account password
