    DCH <*** Email address is removed for privacy ***> Tue, Feb 14, 10:25 AM to Microsoft email sent before this date as well. I still can not change/make MY Local Account into an Administrator. That means I can not check for updates, download, or activate any applications. Also, I can not use the DELL Hard Driver and Devices check and review. Including any updated changes to drivers. This is not acceptable. If it is not resolved, MS runs a risk of a user since the 1900's may not continue using MS OS. In addition I do not and will not use EDGE or MS 365 because of HIGH risk for data being at risk. Micr
