Hi,

My company's PCs are registered in Azure AD. Before with Windows 10 you could create a local user and add it to the administrators group, once created this local administrator could remove the Azure AD user from the local administrators group. In Windows 11 I do the same but the Azure AD user is still an on-premises administrator

Any idea to solve it?

    Some settings to take effect need to restart the device to validate the change in settings.

    I recommend that you check the link below on how to remove this user:

    Also, I recommend that you create a question within the Windows 11 team forum, because this can be a general problem and the more people reporting the faster the problem will be resolved.

    To do this, access the link below and select the option "Ask a question" from the top menu and describe the entire problem, including images:

    Press the Windows key + R to start Run.
    Type netplwiz and click OK or press Enter
    Now click on the account you want to delete and hit the Remove button
    You will be prompted again to accept the deletion of the account and the user data.
