  1. Windows 11 Account


    Greetings,I have Windows 11 set up with a Microsoft account as opposed to local. I want to setup a scheduled backup to run using my account instead of SYSTEM. The option I am offered in the backup program is the user name I set up in Windows which is not the same as my email address in my Microsoft account.If I enter the password to my Microsoft account under my local user name, the password is rejected. The question is, how can I setup credentials to run a scheduled backup using my account instead of SYSTEM. That would require a password to accompany my user name. The question 'why use my ac

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

    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 Windows 11 Account :(
