Windows 10: Organization even though I am the administrator and have no work or school email on the...

My computer is blocking me from using certain settings like being able to change my lockscreen. It’s saying it be run by an organization but I am the administrator. It’s also saying that it could be because it’s under a work or school email but it’s not. There isn’t and never has been a work or school emailed used on this pc. What’s going on and how do I fix it?

Deleting school administrators

Hi Kirsty f,

I am Dave, I will help you with this.

If that laptop contained a volume licence linked to the school, your sister may not be able to activate Windows, she will need to purchase a Windows licence.

Click your Start Button, type cmd then right click Command Prompt and choose 'Run as Administrator'

Run or paste this command and hit Enter:

slmgr.vbs /dlv

Please post a screenshot of the resulting dialog

Open the Settings app, then go to Accounts - Your Info.

A

On that page, is your sisters personal Microsoft account listed or is it a school account?

On that settings page, is there an option to switch to a local account or an option to stop automatically signing into apps with the account?

B

On the left, select Emails and Accounts, is there is the school Email listed there?

Select Access Work or School, is there is the school Email listed there?

 

Remove Deactivated Work Or School Email Account

I have an organizational email account that has been deactivated, current guides online say the following:

"If you need to remove an account from your PC:

1. Select Start > Settings > Accounts > Access work or school .
   
2. Select the account you wish to remove, then select Disconnect
   
   ...."
   

However, the only option presented at this section is "Manage" which forwards me to my organization's page to login. The account has since been deactivated with no way to get to the next step.
I have been getting notifications from my system that "There is a problem with a work or school account click her to fix now" but obviously can't login to remove the account from the system.
Is there a work around to remove the account without logging in?

 

"Your organization does not allow you to place this file here"

Where in Windows are you seeing organizers listed?

If your PC is linked to a work or school account, that will cause that error.

Open the Settings App.

Go to Accounts.

Select Emails and Accounts, is there is a work or school Email listed there?

Select Access Work or School, is there is a work or school Email listed there?
