How do change my computing account type?

See the below link

 Log into your WIN profile (or sign up to a profile) and navigate to 'Update profile'. Then click on your surname under 'Computer account(s)' and then 'change'. You can now change your account between an ordinary use or a low use account, as well as a free SFTP-only account. Please note that if you have a payable account (ordinary or low-use), you will need to enter a grant code from your PI (cost centre and task) for monthly billing. For more information on WIN computing accounts and charges, please see https://www.win.ox.ac.uk/research/it/policies-and-governance/it-charges
