  1. "This work or school account cannot be removed by system policy"


    I accidentally clicked to connect to a school account and now I can't remove it. When I click Disconnect this error appears: "This work or school account cannot be removed by system policy". The school administrators said that they can't help me. How do I delete that account from my computer? Please help, thanks. I use Windows 10 Pro

    :)

    Remove Deactivated Work Or School Email Account

    I have an organizational email account that has been deactivated, current guides online say the following:

    "If you need to remove an account from your PC:

    1. Select Start > Settings > Accounts > Access work or school .
    2. Select the account you wish to remove, then select Disconnect

      ...."
    However, the only option presented at this section is "Manage" which forwards me to my organization's page to login. The account has since been deactivated with no way to get to the next step.
    I have been getting notifications from my system that "There is a problem with a work or school account click her to fix now" but obviously can't login to remove the account from the system.
    Is there a work around to remove the account without logging in?

  3. Cant remove work/school account

    Greetings,

    for past few hours i've been trying to remove my school account but sadly no luck so far.

    it just keeps telling me "this work or school account cannot be removed by system policy"

    i tried signing in with a local account and then disconnecting my school account but that did not work.

    whats driving me crazy is that same method worked on my laptop but will not work on my pc for some reason.

    Work or School account cannot be removed by system policy and other errors occur simultaneously

    Already tried that as you can see in the images I posted. The system's policy is preventing me to remove my school account. Anyways Thanks for the advice, appreciated it.
