    Change user email login


    I deleted my old email at live.com and created a new Outlook.com email which I use to login to Microsoft. The old bredband email has been deleted but how do I update the email address aat the login screen to show the new one without creating a new account?
    What I am trying to do is where it says my name, email address and password on the login screen is have the new email but cannot figure it out.
    I dont want to create a new account as I dont want to lose or mess about with the settings, email, documents etc.

    Any idea's?

    How do I remove my Microsoft account from my profile in windows 10?

    All settings, Accounts.

    Sign in with a local account instead.

    Will change your email login to the computer, to a regular user name login w/o email.

    Unable to log in to user admin account

    This morning I added my email alias as my Windows 10 "admin user" account and changed my primary email (or log-on) to a "standard user" account. I assumed that they shared the same password because the alias hangs off of my primary email. I can't login
    to my admin user account now, I receive a message "the user name or password is incorrect." I've changed my primary email password, but I still can't login to my admin user account using the same password. I have logged in to outlook.com before using my
    email alias and my primary email password. Anybody have any ideas?

    Thanks
