  1. Please help me get Windows Hello off of this computer


    I never meant to activate this horrible Hello feature. One foolish day I tried to log into my workplace OneDrive from the new computer, and ever since it's been telling me that I need to sign in just to save a simple Word file. This is quite a bad feature. Why would anyone want to sign into a hotmail account every time they need to just save a letter they typed! So I have tried everything. I changed to a "local account," I went to settings and sign-in and removed everything and turned off everything. I still get this cursed box every single time I try to write something and save it. Please advise me as to how to get rid of sign-in, get rid of Hello, and get rid of the constant notifications that "something is wrong with your account" because no one wants this:

    Help, cant create windows image

    Hello there, @fullinfusion!

    It seems like some sort of an OS confusion has happened with your secondary WD Black and I'm sorry to hear about that. *Frown Please help me get Windows Hello off of this computer :(
    Maybe re-formatting it would help indeed as the community already mentioned. I'd suggest to take a look at this step-by-step how to partition and format an HDD: http://products.wdc.com/support/kb.ashx?id=PYCoid
    Keep in mind that this will wipe clean the drive, so you should backup all important data from the drive somewhere else.
    I noticed from the screenshots that your HDD appears as Disk 0, this means that it's plugged in the primary SATA port where the SSD (as an OS drive) should be. Actually it is possible that because of this Windows cannot create the image there. Swap the ports of the SSD and the HDD, this might help as well.

    Keep me posted. Hope this helped! *Smile Please help me get Windows Hello off of this computer :)
