    How do I remove the "link" to my Microsoft Account for a corrupted Profile (Win10)


    I want to log on with my Microsoft Account on a new created Admin profile, but get the message: that a profile it is already linked to this Microsoft Account on this pc.



    This "old" profile got corrupted after hardware/software failier that resulted in black screen and several reset with no succes. After several forced shot down (=Power Failier) the system detected the screen again and I was able to log in to the Profile - but this time with an empty desktop (could not load the full profile, documents pictures etc.)

    After another restart, I could no longer log in to the profile - It just returned to the login screen when I tried to log in.


    I then created a new Profile with Admin rights and were able to copy local documents etc. from the corrupted profile to the new profile.


    The new profile just need to be linked to my Microsoft Account - if someone can me remove the link to the corrupted profile.

    My system: Windows 10 Pro, version 1803, Build 17134.829

    :)

    Remove Microsoft linked account in Windows 10

    This question refers to steps 3 and 4 in the thread How to rename the User folder in Windows 10?<br>
    The troublesome steps are:

    3) Remove original Microsoft linked account<br>
    4) Link local account to Microsoft account if you wish

    I was stuck on those 2 steps. I couldn't find a way in Windows 10 to remove the Microsoft account.

    Any ideas?

    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:
      Code:
      net user test /del
