  1. Cant remove work/school account


    Greetings,


    for past few hours i've been trying to remove my school account but sadly no luck so far.


    it just keeps telling me "this work or school account cannot be removed by system policy"


    i tried signing in with a local account and then disconnecting my school account but that did not work.

    whats driving me crazy is that same method worked on my laptop but will not work on my pc for some reason.

    :)

    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:

    Cant remove work/school account

    Work or school account can't be removed from the device

    First of all, are you using a Microsoft account or a local account to sign in to your PC? I really don't see an issue with the current user account if you're trying to remove a different Microsoft account in Settings.

    Did you have Office 365 installed before and your work/school account added to it? What does it exactly say when you try to manage that account in Settings > Accounts > Email & accounts? Usually it will open a new windows where you sign in, although even if
    you sign in to it, I don't think you can do anything relevant unless you're one of the administrators for that work/school network.

    You can try these steps and see if it will work for you. Please make sure you're sign in to an administrator account in your PC first:

    1. Go to Settings > Accounts > Your info

    2. Click "Sign in with a local account instead" if your Microsoft account is added. You might be signed out after this step.

    3. Sign back in. Then go to Settings > Accounts > Access work or school

    4. Click "Disconnect" and see if that works.

    If it worked, you can sign your Microsoft account back in.

    You can refer to the link below for more info:

    Please tell me whatever the results are.
