    Reassign computer to another preson


    I have a computer Windows 10 which has my two accounts work & private on it, with data for both accounts stored online.

    I want to reassign the computer to another user not me, for them to use as a work computer. I could reformat it, but Windows is up to date so that would be unnecessary. I want to remove all links to my accounts and any data stored locally and reassign the machine to a staff member.


    Thanks in anticipation, Jon

    :)

    Reassign computer to another preson

    I have a computer (Windows 10) which has my two accounts (work & private) on it, with data for both accounts stored online.

    I want to reassign the computer to another user (not me), for them to use as a work computer. I could reformat it, but Windows is up to date so that would be unnecessary. I want to remove all links to my accounts (and any data stored locally) and reassign
    the machine to a staff member.

    Thanks in anticipation, Jon

    Hello JonHynes1,

    I'm Jin, a fellow Windows 10 user and an independent advisor.

    I understand that you want to pass your computer to another user but doesn't want to format or reset the device.

    If that's the case, I recommend you create another user account for the new user of the device. If you want to permanently transfer the ownership to another user, make the new user account as administrator. After creating the new user account, have both of
    your user accounts deleted so your files/data will removed from that device.

    To create a user account:

    https://support.microsoft.com/help/4026923

    To delete your user account:

    Login to newly created administrator account, open Settings > Family & other users > select your the user you want to remove and press Remove > Select Delete account and data.

    Kind regards.

    Reassign shorcut

    Let us perform some other process. You can reassign some keys to access different commands, shortcuts, or Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center features to better fit your work style.

    Please note that the options listed in this wizard vary depending on the key selected. For example, since you cannot reassign the Windows key, the only option available is to disable it. To reassign a key, please follow the steps below:

    • Using the keyboard that you want to configure, start Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center.
    • From the displayed list of key names, select the key you want to reassign.
    • In the command list of the key that you want to reassign, select a command.

    Let us know the outcome of the steps provided.

    Thank you.
