    Cannot log in to my new laptop after adding my Microsoft account


    I signed in to my new Windows 11 Pro laptop yesterday with just my first name. Today I signed in to my Microsoft account on it. Then I used Bitlocker to lock used section of C drive. Now I cannot log in to it at all - it won't even display the password box! Help?

    :)

    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.

    Cannot log in to my new laptop after adding my Microsoft account

    register PC with microsoft; use local account to log in

    I bought a used laptop running Win 10 Pro. winver reports 1809.
    How do I register my PC with my Microsoft account?
    But when I'm done, I'd like to use my local account each time to log in.
    Please tell me how to do that.
    I am very new at Win 10, and need step by step instructions.

    Thanks,
