  1. HOW TO REMOVE SETTINGS FROM MICROSOFT ACCOUNT


    Every single time I install windows, it loads up my profile with wallpaper, and windows settings , EVEN if I turn off sync before I install windows. I am selecting to remove all settings and files, however, windows 10 installs with sync ON by default. And it's loading ALL of my old settings. HOW DO I REMOVE THOSE SETTINGS SO THEY ARE NO LONGER LINKED TO MY ACCOUNT!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? I WANT TO CLEAR THESE SETTINGS SO THEY STOP SYNCING WHEN I INSTALL WINDOWS 10. Windows 10 has SYNC on by default, so it ALWAYS sync's so these settings no matter what. I'm tired of this. I want to remove these settings. HOW DO I DO IT? WHERE IS IT STORING THIS DATA?

    :)

    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

    Microsoft Account-Remove Cloud Backup of Personal Settings question


    Hi,
    I looked at my Microsoft Account and under the Devices Menu at the top for my PC I noticed a More Actions dropdown list saying Remove cloud backup of personal settings which talks about turning off syncing first and then clicking on Remove button and then removing the PC from the backed up devices in OneDrive which is never listed in Windows 10. There is also another option in the More Actions dropdown menu for the PC in my Microsoft account saying Remove PC.
    For what purpose would you use these two options ? (Remove cloud backup of personal settings and Remove PC)
