I recently lost access to my Microsoft account after getting hacked, and I was an administrator on my laptop and PC. Now, I want to remove this admin access since I don't have the password or the means to access the account. What's the best way to go about this?

You should know that only an admin can remove another admin account. However, the primary admin account created when you set up your PC can't be removed. The best course of action would be to look for a tool to reset your password.
Oh man, sounds like you're in a tough spot!
If you're looking to remove the Microsoft account, you'll first need to switch it to a local account. Have you tried recovering your password through email? It might be worth keeping your Microsoft account, as it often links to your Windows license.
