If you have a Microsoft account set up on a Windows 10 computer, you'll be able to switch to a local account. Here's how: • Sign in using your Microsoft Account. • Select Settings from the Start menu. • Navigate to Accounts, click Your Email and Accounts. Then, Sign in with the local account instead, and the Switch to a local account prompt will appear. • Afterward, input your Microsoft account credentials on the wizard.  • Select Next. On the next page, enter your name in the "Username" field. • Ensure you input a strong password as well as a password hint.
