How do I change my ReadyCloud Admin?

Hello Björn_Eberhardt,
Yes you are on the right track. Disabling the ReadyCloud is fine as it will not remove the current ReadyCloud users. Clicking Leave button on the other hand, means you are removing the ReadyCloud user that has admin rights for ReadyCloud access and will definitely also remove the current invited ReadyCloud users as well as their home/personal shares.
Should you want to change the ReadyCloud account that has admin rights, make sure you back up all the users' home shares first.
