Windows 10: My Windows Computer is logged in to another account that I am unable to change.

My work computer has somehow been synced to m sons outlook account. IK have removed device from his outlook settings but is is still showing as the account holder on my work computer. I have tried so many things to get my work email as the main account and have been unsuccessful.

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

 

Unable to login with microsoft account

Hi,

Issues with signing in to a Microsoft account are usually happening due
the two-step verification is turned on or you are traveling or using a new device.
For us to provide an accurate resolution, we would need you to answer the following questions:

• Are you experiencing the sign in issue upon logging in to your computer?
• Are you having the same error when you are trying to sign in to your Microsoft account using a web browser? If yes, is the same issue happening even when you are using other web browsers?
• Have you made any changes to your account before this issue occurred?
• What changes have you made to your computer prior to having this issue?

In the meantime, we suggest that you read and follow the suggested troubleshooting steps on these links:

• When you can't sign in to your Microsoft account.
• We can't sign in to your account.

We are looking forward to your response.
