Hello tomwoodward
Thanks for useful the link shared.
1, We want to remove standard accounts that are created locally in Windows devices from Administrators group.
With the 'Account protection' option, we can do that by using the option 'Add (Replace)' for Administrators group and select any one of the Entra user? There is no option here add an account created locally.
2. How about adding or keeping a common standard account which is created locally in the device to the Administrators group only?
Thanks
