Windows 10: Microsoft account has the same domain as the bussiness Account

I have a friend with a Microsoft account domain that is the same as his business domain. He does not remember how he created it, but it is there and it is causing confusion. When he logs on to his Microsoft account, and select the work or school account, he logs on to his bussinees/microsoft account *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, but if he selects personal account, he logs on with *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. The passwords are different for each account and MFA is turned on on the bussiness account.


The personal account bussinessdomain.com is linked to an outlook.com account and a gmail.com account. The personal account is the account used for logging on to Windows 10 computers. Can this account be converted to a microsoft hotmail or outlook account so it does not cause confusion. When he has his bussiness account added to Mail in windows 2010, the mail does not go out.


Thanks,

Bill

Domain admin account as built-in admin account


I just upgraded two brand new pc's from Win 7 to Win 10. Computers were already added to the domain in Win 7 and I was logged into the domain administrator account when I did the upgrade to Win 10. Now when I am logged in with the domain administrator account, I can't open Edge. It says "This app can't open. Microsoft Edge can't be opened using the Built-in Administrator account. Sign in with a different account and try again."

How do I get the local "Administrator" account to be the Built-in administrator account?

The list of user accounts are:
admin (local admin account I made in Win 7)
Administrator (I assume local administrator account that is automatically created)
administrator.AESSEINVLTD (domain admin account I am logged in with)
Default.migrated
Public.

 

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown

 

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:
