Windows 10: My School Account Locked My Laptop Desktop Background

For a bit my school laptop was messed up so it was out for repair. In the mean time I had been using my personal laptop. I had to add my school account to my personal laptop in google, and before I did, I got a warning saying that changes would be made if I did or something like that. I didn’t think too much of it, so I continued. I finally got my school laptop back so I removed my school account from google, but I’ve noticed that I can’t change my desktop background back to a custom image. I can only use the solid colors. I haven’t noticed any other changes that may have been made to my laptop, but if anyone has any sort of idea in how to fix my desktop background problem, it would be much appreciated.

School Login locking down Personal PC

I dont know if that is possible, since its the school account that the school assigns. And carries with them thoughout there school career .

Seems kind of messed up that they lock that though. With how things are going he is on a mobile line, and hard to get a hold of him. Probably will have more time midweek.

You could also ask support if you use that account will it lock entire machine or just that user?
