    Windows 10 opening "Access work or school" not possible


    Hi!


    I have a weird problem for some time already. Whenever I am trying to open "Access Work or School" settings on my computer, the whole settings app gets closed. Therefore I am unable to disconnect any of the existing accounts or add new work account. What can be a reason for that and how to fix it?


    Regards,

    Tomasz

    Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

    Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

    • Open a new Explorer window.
    • Click View in the ribbon.
    • Click Options.
    • Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
    • Click OK

    Can't remove a Work or School account from Windows 10

    This scenario occurs when you sign in with a personal Microsoft Account, and then add a Work or School organisational (Office 365) account.

    The aim is to remove a Work or School Account from the PC, so that a different Work or School account can be used.

    You should be signing in with a Personal Microsoft Account, and the PC should not be on a domain to reproduce this.

    Steps to repro

    1. Create a login on the PC using your Personal Microsoft Account

    2. Open Settings > Accounts > Access work or school

    3. Click "Connect"

    4. Enter the details for your Work or School Organisational Account (NOT another Personal MSA)

    This will then pull down the policy etc. and link the account to Windows. Seems to work fine, but then if you want to remove the account it is impossible. Try this:

    1. Open Settings > Accounts > Access work or school

    2. Click on the Organisational account you added previously

    3. Click on "Disconnect"

    4. A prompt will appear asking if you are sure

    5. Click Yes

    6. A further prompt will appear asking you to disconnect from the organisation

    7. Click Disconnect

    8. A yellow error message says "This PC isn't joined to a domain"

    This does not appear to be the correct behaviour - It should be possible to remove the account here. The message is technically correct...The device is not on a domain, but this should not stop the account being removed.

    What I am trying to do, is disconnect one account and add a different one. Adding two Work or School accounts does not seem to work, so removing the old one first is the only option but this is impossible due to the above mentioned error.

    Anybody know how to get around this without wiping the whole device?
