Windows 10: Can't disable "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead"

I had "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead" greyed out with the registry with the entry below, but I got a notification from MS this morning saying I needed to fix my account and "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead" is no longer grey out and I have looked at Group Policy and it is set to "Users can't add or log on with Microsoft accounts".

Sign in with a Microsoft account instead

I do in fact have an existing Microsoft account and if I go directly to Microsoft, everything works. The problem is clearly at Step 7 of the process of, "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead." I don't know why this is happening.

 

Sign in with a Microsoft account instead

I have a Local Account and want to, "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead". I go through all of the required steps including entering my Username and Password. Microsoft accepts everything, then ask me to enter my password one final time. I very carefully enter it exactly as I did before and Microsoft says its not correct. Any help wold be appreciated.
