Hi @medic3pm medrick iii
Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.

I understand you want to move information from the previous chef’s account to yours.
To better assistance, could you please confirm following information:

1. Did the old chef sign in that computer by account provided by your organization?
2. Do you need to move only files from the computer, or also emails and OneDrive files from the old account?
3. Is this computer managed by your company’s IT team (for example, does it show company sign-in or Intune/Company Portal)?
4. Do you need to keep any special apps or point-of-sale (POS) software settings?
5. Do you know if the old chef’s account is still active and you have permission to access it?
6. Is your new account already set up and working on this computer?

Important Note: Do not delete or sign out of the old account yet.
