    Erasing an account


    Hi,

    when I start the PC I notice 2 accounts are available. They seems the same, but I'd like to keep the one above, since it's linked with a Microsoft account.


    It's seems I have only 1 account on my PC, but there's something strange since it seems managed by my organization !?!.

    Do you have any suggestion?

    it looks much cleaner then the eraser so that is a big step up.
