    Hello,Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. Recently, I have been receiving notices from Microsoft Authenticator to select the two-digit code that was shown by the account or app for which I was attempting to log in. The only problem is that I have not been the person attempting to log into the account/app, and I do not know how to find out who it is nor which account/app they are attempting to access. I can see from where they are attempting to gain access by going to account.live.com and looking at recent activity, but that very well could be through a VPN. Is there any way to s

    Remove account

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.

    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:

    How to find out which of my accounts or apps a person is attempting to access?

    Cannot access shared network drive


    Personally, I wouldnt use Everyone. If anyone hacks into you, they have full access to everything and can demolish everything on your raid. I would rather set up accounts and access separately for each person. That way, I know who did all that damage. In the end with a little extra work, I feel more secure by using Authenticated Users.


    If this helps.
    step 1 create non-microsoft account and without email and address without admin rights
    step 2 share a drive or folder to specific user account (if Everyone is listed, remove it)
    step 3 set security > add Authenticated Users (if more than 1 account) or add specific users
    step 3a remove Everyone from list
    step 3b uncheck full control and write for all items listed except SYSTEM and Admin account.
    step 4 right click Start > Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Shares ... to verify settings and change anything else. You can also see the number of connections to each share here.
