    How can I remove a work account that is no longer active but still retain the documents associated with that account? I have recently retired and my default account on Google is my work account that is no longer active.

    :)

    Remove account


    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    • Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    • Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code: net user test /del[/quote]

  3. Remove personal Microsoft account and only use Office 365 & associated email

    Hi,

    To remove your Microsoft account without restoring your computer, you can follow the steps below:

    • Click Start, and then click Settings.
    • Click Accounts and select Your email and accounts.
    • Click on the account that you want to remove.
    • Click Delete account and data confirmation.

    If you will delete the account and it's data, you will be unable to use the data and the files associated to the same account.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Windows hello removal from an account I no longer have access to.

    Just a quick recap, you've set up Windows Hello on a user account on your
    PC that is associated with a business account you no longer have access to. Is that right? If that is the case, you could simply
    remove the user account on your PC. You will need an administrator account in order to remove a user account. To remove a user account on your PC, follow these steps:

    • Go to Settings>Accounts>Family & other users.
    • Select the user account that you want to remove.
    • Click Remove.
    • You'll be prompted again, click Delete account and data.

      (Note: Removing a user account deletes all the data the is saved in it)

    Upon removing that account on your PC, you can now set up Windows Hello.

    Do get back to us if you need further assistance.
