    I have to reset my computer as I have 0 access to any sort of administrator account on this device, and cannot get it back. I have backed up literally every file I own on here, but I only have 1 email address. Will this affect my ability to make a new Microsoft account with the admin account. will I be able to log in to my old accounts?
    thank you

    :)

  2. sign into microsoft account glitch

    Hi Micheal,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    • Is this the only account on the computer?
    • Was this account upgraded from previous version of Windows?

    It looks like you are using a local account. I suggest you follow these steps:

    • Click on search in taskbar and type account.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Now, under Your account, click on Sign in with Microsoft account instead.
    • Enter your Local account password for confirmation and then follow the screen instruction.
    • Enter User name credentials for your the new Microsoft account and click OK.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards
