    Thank you for posting in Microsoft Community.

    1) How do you access the Windows computer? Do you use Microsoft account or local account?

    I suggest you to follow the below steps and check if it helps.


    • Open PC settings, and click/tap on Accounts on the left side.

    • Click/tap on your account on the right side, click/tap on the More account settings online link at the top of the right side.

    • In Internet Explorer, or your default web browser, click/tap on the Add or change aliases link under Account aliases.

    • Click/tap on Rename under your (primary alias).

    • Click/tap on Yes, rename my primary alias.

    • Sign in to your Microsoft account with your new email address and password. You can close the web browser when finished.

      • Select (dot) Create a new email address as your primary alias.

    How to change Windows 10 administrator email address

    I have have a new email address which I use to log into my Microsoft account. However, the old email address (which no longer works) is still associated with the administrator account on my PC. I am the only user and have no other accounts on the device.

    How can I change the old administrator email address to the new one?

    There are numerous posts on the MS community on this problem but none actually state what to do. I need a step-by-step instruction sheet Why do you still have my old email address as the Administrator to where I cannot change it... :)

    Can anyone help?

    Sue

    Changing administrator email address on windows 10.

    Will not allow delete of "old Account email address", only "Manage" tab appears.

    Will allow me to delete the "new account" email address though, which is not what I need.

    I changed email address on my "Microsoft account", however administrator still shows "old" email address.
