Trying to find GPO that renames local admin account

  • 0

Hi All

I have a domain joined machine here where the local admin account has been renamed. As far as I know this is done through group policy, but for the life of me I can’t find the GPO that does this. I’ve gone through every policy listed in the RSOP in both user and computer scope, and nothing.

Is it possible to rename the admin account by other means? The machine is also enrolled in Intune, but I wasn’t aware renaming local admin was possible there.

TIA

Si

      No sure below might can help this path shows we can rename local administrator account using GPO.

      Expand Computer Configuration, expand Windows Settings, expand Security Settings, expand Local Policies, and then click Security Options.
      In the right pane, double-click Accounts: Rename administrator account.
