Windows 10: Trying to search my files and I'm getting a prompt to log in and then the following error...

Message: AADSTS500200: User account '*****@hotmail.com' is a personal Microsoft account. Personal Microsoft accounts are not supported for this application unless explicitly invited to an organization. Try signing out and signing back in with an organizational account. I recently finished up with a company and I suspect my PC Microsoft login was linked to my organisational email address, as it keeps prompting me for this. I no longer have access to this email address, and I can't access some personal files any more. Would this affect why I can't access some One-drive files and is there any

Saves log files ?

You can either read the files in Windows or my preferred method is.....

Download CCcleaner from here...........

You can then run cleaner, you will see the log files listed, then if you right click you can save as a text file and then have a read. You may also get an "error reporting" log listed seperatly.

 

Windows 10 search won't find files, folders and exe's

Hi Sannie,



Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community. I understand your concern and I am glad to assist you.

Appreciate your efforts in trying to resolve the issue.

Step 1:
I would suggest you to try the search and indexing inbuilt troubleshooter and check if it helps for you.

Please follow the steps:

• 
  Type troubleshooter in the search bar and click on it.
  
• 
  Select view all on the left panel of your screen.
  
• 
  From the troubleshooter list, Click on search and indexing
  and follow the on-screen instructions.
  

Step 2: Perform an SFC (System File Checker) scan on your system for any corrupted file settings.

• Press Windows + X on your keyboard.
• Select Command prompt admin.
• At the command prompt type “sfc /scannow” (no quotes), and then press ENTER.

Note: Do not close this Command Prompt window until the verification is 100% complete. The scan results will be shown after this process is finished.



Hope this post is helpful. Get back to us with the results. We are happy to help.
