Windows 10: How can I remove my Microsoft account from a computer I gave away, and add that persons...

I gave my old Windows 10 desktop PC to a friend about 150 miles away. My Microsoft account is the administrator and sign in on his computer. I added his Microsoft account and changed it to administrator. It will not let meremove my original Microsoft account. All I can do with my account on his computer isManage, and that is no help to me. I have both Microsoft account passwords and access his computer every Friday morning to do routine maintenance. How can I remove my Microsoft account from his computer and add his accountwithout disturbing files, settings, desktop setup etc.?

Remove account

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:

 

Microsoft Account-Remove Cloud Backup of Personal Settings question

Hi,
I looked at my Microsoft Account and under the Devices Menu at the top for my PC I noticed a More Actions dropdown list saying Remove cloud backup of personal settings which talks about turning off syncing first and then clicking on Remove button and then removing the PC from the backed up devices in OneDrive which is never listed in Windows 10. There is also another option in the More Actions dropdown menu for the PC in my Microsoft account saying Remove PC.
For what purpose would you use these two options ? (Remove cloud backup of personal settings and Remove PC)

 

Personal Microsoft Account Linked to Work Computer and Cannot Remove It

I recently noticed that my personal Microsoft account is linked to the Administrator account on my work computer. I have tried various steps to remove it/sign-out of it and it still shows my username and profile picture upon sign in. I have already tried
the following steps.

1. Removing the account through settings (not getting a choice to remove)

2. Signing in with a local account (not getting an option to do so)

3. Removing all trusted devices

4. Removing my work computer under device tab in my online account

5. Chatted with Tech Support

6. Changed my password hoping it would prompt me to sign in again

If anyone has any additional things I can try I appreciate it as the work computer is accessible to whoever is scheduled to work that day.
