I got a laptop from a company that went belly up. It was connected to
their domain, but I created a local admin account and everything was
good. However, they have some crazy password setting policies. So when I
created local accounts for my kids, the password policies are a problem.
I tried to disconnect from the domain, but it wants a userid/password
that has the authority to disconnect the computer from the domain. Given
that the company is history, I can't find anyone that has this
userid/password.
Attempts to go into Local Security Policy (secpol.msc) and change things
there have failed since everything is grayed out and I can't change
anything.
So, short of reinstalling Windows, how can I disconnect my laptop from
the domain?
