    School Login locking down Personal PC


    My daughter does her home work on one of our PCs
    At times she need to access her personal gmail account. I forward any school information that I get to her personal email.

    She usually has about 10 tabs open on Chrome browser. Multiple subjects etc.
    She is also logged into her school k12 google login on Chrome as well as the tabs she is using.

    When trying to log out of Chrome it gives her an error and says accounts.google.com is blocked.

    When she tries to log onto edge browser she gets re-directed to google classroom login instead of her personal gmail (where she needs the emails that I send her)

    Closing Chrome and opening it back up does no good.

    Cannot log out of Chrome to log her into her personal account.

    Any one know why Google has hi-jacked my PC? Or what I can do about it?

    :)

  2. Lock vs Login screen screenshot

    You can use your own image of any background and just go to settings/personalize/lock screen and click on browse as in the image below. It should make whatever picture you use as the Lock Screen

    School still requiring login changes after disconnecting on my PC

    This has been going on for a bit now, and I'm finally getting so fed up with having to brainstorm new pins every 3 months. I initially added my school live account in hopes it would make working between home and school easier. After a while, I found it so
    annoying the issues outweighed the benefits, mainly in the fact I was running out of logins I could easily remember. For some reason, the policy for non-school PC is triple how often you need to reset a school-owned one. Anyways, I disconnected, yet I still
    have the organizational restrictions on my login and consistently have to change everything but my fingerprint, which doesn't always work. Here are the repo steps...

    1. Settings -> Accounts -> Access work or school.
    2. Click the profile you wish to disconnect and select "Disconnect".
    3. A) Wait for a month or two until it requires pin reset.

      B) Go to Settings -> Accounts -> Sign-in options and click pin or password. Below it will give you a list of organizational restrictions and hold you to them when creating the pin.
    I can live without a fix, but personally i want my school of my laptop since I won't be going there soon anyways.

    Lock vs Login screen screenshot

    Hi Josey -

    Thanks for the quick reply. While your suggestion does change the sign in process, it doesn't address the differing screenshot question. Following the steps doesn't make the login screenshot the same as the Lock screenshot. As I mentioned, I can't even find the screenshots being used for both screens.

    Still looking a solution to this. Open to any other suggestions you might have to the problem. Thanks!
