Removing/changing Administrator

Hi Mike,

We are sorry to hear about the loss.

Before assisting we would like to know:

The account you are speaking about is it a Microsoft Administrator Account or a Local Administrator Account?

• 
  If it is a Microsoft Administrator Account then Password cannot be removed.
  
• 
  In order to remove the Password Protection for a Local Administrator Account you would need to Enable the Build In Administrator Account. This will help you in removing the Password.
  
• 
  To Enable the Build In Administrator Account Please follow the below steps:
  

• 
  Press Windows Logo + X
  
• 
  Click on Command Prompt (Administrator).
  
• 
  Type: net user administrator /active: yes
  
• 
  Hit Enter
  
• 
  Now you will be able to remove the Password, to remove the Password please follow the below link:Redirecting
  

As per the Description you have mentioned as you see an error as "change settings are currently unavailable." We would request you to help us with the Screenshot of this error.

Change of administrator on Windows 11

Hi,

I am planning to change my administrator account to a new Microsoft account on Windows 11. I am confident on technical steps but I have a question on consequences. What I mean by that is: when I change my administrator account,

• do I lose some data?
  
• Can I access the data from the previous admin user folder? etc.
  

May I request you to help me with the points where it could go wrong and lose my data or access to the data please? Thanks in advance.
