Windows 10: Want to add work or school account as a separate windows account user on windows 11 Home

Please help me with this

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown

 

Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

Look at this thread,How to Delete a User Account in Windows 10, it may help. You can try the various methods.
Make sure you are using an administrative account when removing the account or log on using the Administrator's account.

Or, if you are patient and know what you are doing, manually remove it.

Either way, Goodluck.

 

Sign into account protection with work or school account

Hello, this is Emily.

Windows' account protection is specific for personal Microsoft account, because a work or school account has its own account management/protection feature managed by the organization and configured by the organization, hence work/school account is not relevant here for this feature.

If you are using Windows Home edition, you do have to set up the computer using a personal Microsoft account. However, you can turn it into a local user by severing the tie with this Microsoft account later by going to Settings > Accounts > Your info. From there, one can click on "sign in with a local user instead" to turn the Windows user into local account. Users cannot set up a Windows user using a work or school account because it is a Home edition, which is not intended for business use. If you need to set up a Windows user using work or school account, you need at least Pro edition, which you already have. If that's what you need to do, you will have to use these steps instead:

Go to Settings > Accounts > Access Work or School, click on Connect.

Don't sign into your work email yet. Instead, click on "Join this device to Microsoft Entra ID". On the next step, you will be prompted to sign in, then you can sign in.

Once done, restart the computer and you can use "switch user" to sign in using the company email.
