    Can I Log Out of my “Microsoft Home Account”


    version is in my signiture

    Good afternoon
    How can I Log Out of my Microsoft HomeAccount Ive been caught before and I am very wary of MS asking me to change passwords and doing a Clean Install!
    Microsoft Hi Jacked My MS HomeAccount I was double checking my backed up passwords when it refused my original password and asked for a new one
    Since then Microsoft Word wont default to Open the HOME TAB when opening a Doc
    There is also another different Admin Account name next the Enter your account name and ID picture and a caution icon at top right border,
    but in [/ Microsoft doc- File- Options More personalise your Copy of MS word ] it still has my Original Admin account name and initials
    The Computer now only saves my docs as Read Only because of those two accounts

    Tanks for any help Cheers *Smile

    :)

    register PC with microsoft; use local account to log in

    Just simply log in with your Microsoft Account.
    Switch to Microsoft Account in Windows 10

    Just go back to using a local account:
    Switch to Local Account in Windows 10

    Hopefully the tutorials are step by step enough.
