Windows 10: Need help changing my Win 10 registration from my fathers email to me

Hello all,
For my first and question/thread I need help in learning how to change the registration of the copy of Windows 10 on this laptop I just got. It was sent to my parent home because I was traveling there for the weekend and my dad got the laptop sent to them but he was unable to use my email address because Microsoft would not accept it for some reason and he registered it as his own.
