  1. How to undo a Orphaned Account


    So today I made a huge mistake, I searched on google on how to change my username and I opened run and I did "control userpasswords2" I messaged a windows advisor and he told me that I had an "Orphaned account". He told me to do a system restore but I cannot open control panel or
    search

    as it says " No mapping between account names and security IDs" this is not a work computer so please help me in this confusing situation!

    :)

    Hi,

    To resolve your issue, we suggest that you follow the steps below:

    • As an adult in the family account, sign in with your Microsoft account.
    • Under Your family, click
      Remove
      .
    • Click the child account you want to remove, and click Remove.
    • You will get an email confirmation once the child has been removed from the family.
    Note: If you removed a Child account, it will be tagged as an "Orphaned account" and you will need to attach another "Parent account".

  4. How to undo a Orphaned Account

    Undo/Un-sync Administrator Account tied to a Microsoft Account

    Hi,

    It seems that there are changes made on your administrator account after logging in to the Microsoft Store as one of your children. For us to resolve the issue, we suggest that you switch the administrator account to local account and switch it to your own
    Microsoft account. To change account types on your computer, follow these steps:

    • In Cortana search, type control panel.
    • Choose Control Panel from the list.
    • Under User Accounts, click Change account type.
    • Select your user account and then click Change the account type.

    If you need further assistance, don't hesitate to reach out.
