Hello Group,
I am looking for a way to disable the "Add another account" option in Chrome once a student logs into their managed Chromebook with their school account. The devices only allow students with a school account to log in but once they open Chrome, they can add another account. Is there a way to disable this option?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

We use GoGuardian to block personal Google accounts. I don't know how to block personal Google accounts through the Google admin console settings without causing problems with all of the sites and apps that direct students to accounts.google.com to authenticate their school issued Google accounts.

Good Morning Arlin & Gene, 

I hope all is well.   So if you go into the Admin Console and then go to devices, and Chrome and settings, and then under Device go to the section for Setting and under Sign-in Restriction and Autocomplete Domain.     Sign-in Restriction you set it to Restrict sign-in to a list of users.   There you can do a wildcard@yourdomain and any other domain you want.   Or list the username@yourdomain.  Under Autocomplete Domain put your domain so it always puts your domain in.    We also do not allow guest to sign on to your Chromebook.   We also limit to one account to log onto the Chrome browser which is our domain account.   They are all settings in the Admin console.   Those can all be set by OU as well.   

If you have any questions please email me. 

Have a great day !!!!
