    Hi folks, recently bought laptop through adverts, was quite cheap, but still yet 5 years old...

    Was very slow at beginning, had m2 harddrive some unknown brand, got brand new samsung drive, on other laptop downloaded windows 11 installing software on usb.

    It does starts install and all goes well, untill it start installing some third party account , eventually ends up to email and password screen. Appears laptop did belong to some company in UK , and every time I wipe HDD , and installing windows 11 , it is get to that company account.

    I have switched off all possible tracking option in bios, but still brings back to that company.

    It does install modified iso, but I have no trust modified windows iso, as it could be tampered remotely by bad people.

    Any idea how to put my own account on?

    Maybe someone knows what windows services brings laptop to that account while freshly installing ?

    Regards
