    How to delink a microsoft account from the default administrator


    A while ago I got tired of microsoft sending me pings about linking my account, so I logged in with a random account and linked the default admin to it. Now I want to delink it because microsoft store sucks and wont let me log in due to it being a "Personal Acc.". How do I delink the admin account from the microsoft account. And I dont want to delete the account because it'd be a hastle to resetup everything

    :)

    Delinking Microsoft account from bulit in administrator account

    Hi, I'm sorry I was using a Chinese version of windows 10 at work, so could not find much information about what I need.
    My personal microsoft account somehow got linked to the windows 10 administrator account. If I create another administrator account and try to delete the original administrator account, it doesnt let me do it. I just want to delink my ms account from the computer.
    Anyone has any clues?

    Delink Local Administrator Account from Microsoft Account in Windows 10

    Hi Kalpana,

    Thank you for the reply. I am the only user on the system (administrator account) and the account I have is linked to my microsoft account. I need to delink this account. The steps you have provided above didn't help resolve the issue. If you can provide
    an alternate solution it would be great.

    Thanks

    Delink Local Administrator Account from Microsoft Account in Windows 10

    I have windows 10 installed and after the installation I was asked to put in my hotmail user ID and password and now the local administrator account in linked to the microsoft account. I wish to delink the two accounts and use a different password instead
    of having to use my microsoft password. When I try to reset the local administrator password using the net user command I get a "The system is not authoritative for the specified account and therefore cannot
    complete the operation" error. How do I delink the two accounts without having to reset windows. There seems to be no option to do so in the settings>>Accounts>>your account section.

    Thanks
