  1. My employee accidently logged in on my Microsoft account on her computer


    My employee was trying to log into a website. I was the only one with credentials for the website. It asked for my microsoft login password.

    When she entered it, it switched her whole microsoft account to mine. We cannot switch it back. She sees my opening screen and my settings but her icons are still present on the home screen. Help!

    I have tried deleting her device from my microsoft account, changing my password and logging out of her account from her computer.

    She signs in as herself but it still opens onto my home screen with me as administrator.

    :)
