Windows 10: After my laptop is switched off, it logs me out of my Microsoft account and switches to...

Whenever my laptop is switched off, it logs me out of my Microsoft account, deletes all my local files and all settings are back to default. At this point I don't know what to do because all my files are gone, I can't recover them and now whenever I turn my laptop on, I have to add my Microsoft account instead of being on a local account. Also, all files I download are being deleted and I even have to download keyboard languages every time I turn my laptop on. I'm not even sure where the problem comes from because everything worked well and suddenly it became like this. I don't know if it's Wi

Switch laptop sign in from MS account to Local Account questions

Hi, Ive just switched from signing in to my laptop with a Microsoft Account to signing in with a Local Account instead. My laptop was always listed as a Device on the opening screen along with a map showing its location when I looked in my Microsoft Account. Under Devices I could also view my laptop along with other bits of various information about the device and its location was always shown on a map there too. After signing into my laptop with my Local Account ..If I sign in separately to my Microsoft Account afterwards Ive just noticed that having switched to a Local Account my laptop isnt shown on the opening Microsoft Account screen anymore and its not listed in devices either. Is this normal behaviour? I was expecting to still find my laptop listed in Devices. Also...Under Update and Security/Activation..it used to say Digital Licence linked to a Microsoft Account. Now it just says Windows is Activated with a digital licence. Is all this normal behaviour if you sign into a laptop with a Local Account instead of a Microsoft Account?

 

Switch Back to Existing Local Account from Microsoft Account

I already identified that I had tried this, and that it did not allow me to switch back to the original Local Account. The Microsoft Account hijacked the User Name of the original Local Account. When I click "Sign in With a Local Account instead" and enter
the original User Name, Windows 10 won't proceed. The only way to get back to a Local Account is enter a new User Name.
