How to delete an adult account in the Family Settings.

Hi,

To resolve your issue, we suggest that you follow the steps below:

• As an adult in the family account, sign in with your Microsoft account.
• Under Your family, click
  Remove.
  
• Click the child account you want to remove, and click Remove.
• You will get an email confirmation once the child has been removed from the family.

Note: If you removed a Child account, it will be tagged as an "Orphaned account" and you will need to attach another "Parent account".

Regards.

We appreciate the prompt response. Our next option is to re-sync the account by removing it and adding it again as a child account. To do this, here are the links for a detailed guide on how to remove and add a child account:

• To remove the child account, follow the steps provided on this
  article on how to turn off family features.
• To re-add the child account, follow the steps on this
  link and click the drop down-arrow to view the steps. You can either chose to create a new account or add an existing one.

Once you're done, log in to your device using the newly added child account and check if you encounter the same error.

Let us know if you encounter any challenges along the process.
