  1. Can't sign in to other accounts available on my computer since update to Windows 11


    I have tried signing into my Microsoft account. It tells me that the account is already signed in. I can see it listed as an optional account in settings. However, when I try to sign in, or select other sign in options, it doesn't provide any other options. The only thing it will let me sign into is the local account that the system automatically signed into after the update. This is beyond infuriating. Please provide me a fix so I can sign into my account. I am the administrator, and it won't even let me sign into my administrator account!

    :)

  3. sign into microsoft account glitch

    Hi Micheal,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    • Is this the only account on the computer?
    • Was this account upgraded from previous version of Windows?

    It looks like you are using a local account. I suggest you follow these steps:

    • Click on search in taskbar and type account.
    • Click on Accounts.
    • Now, under Your account, click on Sign in with Microsoft account instead.
    • Enter your Local account password for confirmation and then follow the screen instruction.
    • Enter User name credentials for your the new Microsoft account and click OK.

    Hope this helps.

    Regards

    Can't sign in to other accounts available on my computer since update to Windows 11

    Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

    Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

    I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

    It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

    EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown Can't sign in to other accounts available on my computer since update to Windows 11 :(
