Windows 10: Remove Organisation from Home PC

I hope you can help me.


My wife used our home PC to connect to her work during lockdown and now I can't find what's happened but I can't remove the organisation. I hadn't noticed until recently, my daughters are coming to an age where they use the computer more now and I was in the process of locking the PC down but making it easy for them to log on. Currently my PC just auto logs onto my Microsoft Account but I'm changing this so each of my girls has their own account on the PC so I can keep them safer than using my "can do everything" logon.


I got as far as step 1 and I've hit a problem, I was going to use PINs as it's easier for the girls to remember they're only 8 rather than a password, I'm trying to add a PIN to my user and the first stage is OK: -


- Create PIN

- Click Next

- Enter my password

- Press Sign In

- Enter my required pin

- Press OK


Then another windows comes up "Your organisation requires you to set up your work or school account with Windows Hello Face, Fingerprint or PIN" etc


- Press OK


Now it shows my wife's logon email address under "Pick an Account"

If i press cancel then I get an error 0x801c044f



How do I remove the little ****-heads from my PC?? I can completely remove her from the PC as they've now sent her a laptop to use so they're no issue with deleting anything to do with her and her organisation.


Tried So Far: -

I've checked under Access work or school and there's nothing connected

I'm not on any domains, it's a private network

I've deleted the contents of the NGC folder many times now with rebooting each time

I've uninstalled the Citrix workspace that was running in the background


I'm wondering if it's Office 365 related?? as this was the only other thing I believe was installed/registered so she could work and save to their servers, this can also be removed as my Microsoft account has it's own 365 subscription.

Best way to remove problem Malware

Hi There,

I am trying to remove a bundle of Malware without success.

There is a bundle of listed programs which I try to uninstall through the typical Control Panel effort, but they remain listed there:

Buenosearch Toolbar
MyPC Backup
PC Performer
Speed Test 127
UnknownFile

I was looking at this weblink which provides a 5 step process for Buenosearch alone:
Remove Bueno Search (Removal Guide)

Not sure how much certain guides can be trusted. One of the first things I read was to download Revo Uninstaller, and I've not heard of it so I'm not sure if it's trustworthy..........

 

Remove Devices

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are facing issues while removing the device from your Microsoft account as it keeps popping back after removing.



It could be possible that the device was using OneDrive with the same Microsoft account and that might be the reason you are able to see the device listed under your profile. I would suggest you to remove the device from OneDrive
and see if that helps.



You can follow the steps to remove the device from OneDrive.

1. Login to
   https://onedrive.live.com.
2. Now on the left hand pane click on PC’s.
3. Now click on the devices that are listed under PC’s and on the right hand side click on
   Remove PC.

If the issue persists, please get back to us with the results of the troubleshooting steps to assist you further.
