Windows 10: Accounts and forced links - This should be illegal

I just connected my microsoft account to a friend's pc to play a game... Little did i know that win10 would automatically assume that i was the admin user no microsoft account was linked prior to this. So now my account is the master admin on this computer and my friend had to create another account to continue using his pc without my password.

He of course lost access to all his documents/desktop/firefox parameters wich are now under my name and there is apparently no way to revert this change or switch accounts back to the one he created...

As stated in the title, this should not have happened, or at the very least, windows should have stated very clearly that my microsoft account would link me to his pc account.

After too much time spent searching the web for an answer, i came here not hoping much...

Again, this should be illegal and sounds like some crack dealer sales technique.

Was on the fence about using win10, you can now guess where i stand.
