  1. How do I make my school account my main account?


    I recently had to buy a new computer. On my old computer, I had my school Microsoft account as my main account. So when I turned on my computer I was automatically logged in to my school Microsoft account. Now with the new computer when I was setting it up, it wouldn't let me sign in with my school account for the main one. I had to create a new account just to get in. Now that I am on the computer, I have been able to sign into my school account but my main account that automatically logs me in is the new one and it is frustrating having to constantly remember to sign in to the school one.

    How do I make my school account my main account?

    school account to admin

    HI, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    In Windows, you should never set a school account to administrator on your PC because when you leave the school, they close the account and you will be locked out of your PC.

    Open the Settings App.

    Go to Accounts.

    1

    Select Your Info, do you see your own personal Microsoft Account listed there?

    Select Access Work or School, is the school Email listed there?
