Hello All, I used my PC at a shared office. There the other company and me shared one server. We share a domain "W" I've moved now and have my PC at home. I wanted to change the password of this account but it won't allow me due to the network domain "W" we had. Question: Is there a way to separate the account from that company domain and keep using it? If I try to disconnect from that domain I get a prompt that I won't be able to log into this account anymore. I do not want to lose access to this account. Best regards, Kasia

You need to ask your IT administrator to perform this task, then you are able to make the account as local administrator account and remove from domain or create a new user profile and transfer your data into it. However, someone with administrator permission is able to do it.
Thank you for the answer Reza-Ameri. Looks like I've lost the opportunity to have this done as the server is gone, and correct me if I'm wrong, it is needed to perform this task? I believe I should have the login data for the admin.
