  1. Original Microsoft account Changed folder


    Hello! So a couple hours ago, my computer decided for my account; let’s say C:/Users/User 1. That Microsoft account linked to C:/Users/User 1 randomly changes to C:/Users/User 2. The Microsoft account decided to make a new user Folder named ‘TEMP.Pc name here’. I am very confused, but I am thinking of resetting the computer, which is not what I want to do. Can anyone help?

    :)

    Change Microsoft Account Details in Administrator Account


    Hi Daryl, welcome to the Ten Forums.

    It's quite easy in fact, simply switch the account in question first to a local account, then switch back to a Microsoft account, this time using your wife's MS account credentials.

    Tutorials:
    Notice that before doing this you need to remove the new additional MS account on the PC, the one you created with her credentials. Windows allows only one user account for each email address, if the new account exists you cannot switch the original administrator account to an MS account using the same email address.
