    How do I switch from an old administrator email to a new one?


    I have had my laptop for several years. It is running on Windows 11. When I got it, I set it up on my work email and that business has since shut down. I no longer have access to that email. How do I go in and switch the administrator email for my laptop to my current 365 account email?

    :)

    old email addresses

    Thank you for updating me HA.111

    Here is the step to remove that old email address.

    Start typing an email address into the “To” field. As soon as you see the old email address being recommended as one of the potential candidates, use the down arrow key to scroll through the list of suggestions. Once you highlight the old email address, type the delete key. In many cases, this will actually remove the entry not only from the current list of suggestions but from future suggestions as well. You may even find that as you mouse over the drop-down list the highlighted item will have an “x” to explicitly allow you to delete it.

    Just do this step and your good to go.

    Continue to have an escellent day HA.111

    Best regards,

    How do I switch from an old administrator email to a new one?

    New emails link to old emails and they all show in the inbox

    Hi Carlson,

    Thank you for being part of Windows 10.

    Before we proceed, I need more information to help you better.

    • How many user account you have configured in the Windows Mail app?
    • What do you mean by “New emails link to old emails”?
    If you have configured more than one user account in the Windows Mail app then, I would suggest you to switch the user accounts and check the emails in the inbox.

    Follow the below steps to switch the user accounts in the Windows Mail app:

    • Open the Mail app.
    • Under the Accounts select one user account and check the
      Inbox       under Folders.
    If the issue still persist then, I would recommend you to delete and reconfigure the account.

    Hope the above information helps. Reply with necessary information and the result to help you further.

    Thank you.
