Windows 10: Unstable Taskbar after demoting account to Standard

Hi all,

In order to make my pc more secure I created a new Admin account, then I changed mine from Admin to Standard.
However, now my Taskbar will crash and restart every time I click any of its icons, except for the Sound control. The Sticky note I have showing, crashes along with it, and a second later both reload.
Fortunately it's not affecting other apps so far, it seems. Except for Files Manager. It crashes too.
Just in case, I changed my account back to Admin. But the problem persists *Sad

What should be my next step?

Thanks guys *Smile

Demote an adult account to a child account

SURELY there must be a way to demote an adult account to a child account. Come on, Microsoft!!! I've been asking for this for two years!!! Anyone out there ever successfully demoted an account? Just changing the DOB doesn't work. I don't want to delete
the account - it has lots of xbox points. but as the Parent, I want to set better controls up. HELP

 

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]

 

I don't have an administrator account and i have two accounts and they are both standard account.

Hi,

As per your description, I understand that you have two standard accounts in your computer and you want to convert the account to Administrator account.

I suggest you to follow the below steps to change the standard account to administrator and check if it helps.

• Press ‘Windows+X’ and go to ‘Control panel’.
• Locate ‘User Accounts’ and click on it.
• Click on ‘Change your account type’ and check the option
  ‘Administrator’ then click on ‘Change account type’.
• Now your account will be changed as Administrator account.

Please get back to us with an update on this issue, we will be happy to assist you further.
