  1. Random microsoft account appearnig in explorer and setting despite no account being present...


    I am having an issue where when I'm signed into my Microsoft account some features appear under [sisters email]@gmail.com instead of mine, she has NEVER used my computer and I do not have any other accounts, I tried looking it up online, but I could not find anything. Is not just that my account is disconnected in explorer despite OneDrive working fine it is preventing me from making backups.Note: every time I try to insert a screenshot it wont work. I will be checking in every once in awhile, If your wondering what it works like think of the regular windows explorer account disconnected log

    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 Random microsoft account appearnig in explorer and setting despite no account being present... :(

  3. Microsoft account set as a work account and a Microsoft Account

    Hi Dean,

    As per the description, I suggest that you sign out of one of the accounts and sign into the account again. This will help us to know if the account used in either of the account is not the same.

    To sign-out of the Microsoft Account follow the steps below

    • Sign in to your Microsoft account on Windows 10.
    • Click Start and then PC settings.
    • Click Users and accounts and under Your Profile click Disconnect on the right of the screen.
    • Enter your Microsoft account's password, and click on Next.
    • Type in a Username, Password, and Password Hint that you want set for your Local account and click
      Next. Click on Sign out and Finish button.

    Your reply is very important to ensure a proper resolution. Please get back to us with the above information to assist you accordingly.
