    Windows 10 wants to get rid of Local User on Logon


    Sorry for the cryptic title, let me explain.

    Almost every time I log into my NUC (used only for watching Movies and TV Shows) Windows 10 displays a screen filling dialog (can't close it) asking to change to a Online Account. (sorry no screenshot available yet will post one when I have it)

    Normally you have 2 buttons on it, one to change it and one to dismiss the screen

    Yesterday the dismiss button changed to will remind again in 3 days.

    My question is HOW can I get rid of that screen?

    Ps: Windows 10 Home x64 is at the latest version (April 2020) and fully up to date. (Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.19041.508])
    PsPs: Local user (which I use to logon) is NOT admin and is password protected

    Thx in advance for any pointers

    :)

    Windows 10 Logon - Local Logon replaced by Microsoft Account logon - how do I reverse this?

    A few days ago my Windows 7 PC was upgraded to the Windows 10 free upgrade downloaded by using the 'get windows 10' icon.

    It seemed to work OK for the first few days, but today I cannot logon to my own PC.

    The normal welcome screen has been replaced with a Logon to Microsoft Account screen.

    I did not do anything that I believe should have caused this change.

    I did download 2 windows apps from the windows store, and was required to log into my Microsoft account to download these apps 1 or 2 days before the Welcome screen was replaced. That was the only time I used the affected PC to log on to my Microsoft Account.

    I did not expect my Local Welcome / LOGON Screen to be replaced.

    How do I get rid of the Microsoft Account Logon screen on my Local PC and restore the usual Welcome screen with the Local User IDs ?

    Windows 10 wants to get rid of Local User on Logon

    Window 10 Auto-Logon (Hotmail/MS Account)

    Hello everyone!

    So, i've updated my PC to Windows 10 and i have a little problem.

    Anyone knows how to auto-logon without asking for password using Hotmail/MS Account? I i've already tried the trick using "netplwiz" from Windows 8 wich always worked totally, and in Win10 it just does not work, it keeps asking me for password...

    Anyone knows how to bypass this without having to create a local account?

    Cheers.
