  3. How to convert Microsoft user account to Local user account on Windows 10?

    Hi Sherida,



    Please reply to a few questions for understanding the issue better:

    • Do you want to login into the user account as a Local user?
    • Are you currently logging in using a Microsoft account?


    Logging in using a Microsoft account with administrator privileges will let you access all of the Windows delightful features like
    Cortana (your new personal assistant), Spotlight feature, download apps and games from
    Windows Store and many more on your PC.



    To login as a Local user account on the computer, convert the
    Microsoft user account by following the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.



    • Press Windows logo + I keys on the keyboard to open
      Settings
      window
    • Click Accounts and under Your emails and accounts, click on
      sign in with a local account instead option.
    • Enter your old Microsoft account's password and click on Next.
    • Type in Password, and Password Hint that you want set for your local account and click
      Next. Click on Sign out and Finish button.
    • Login to check if the changes are effective.


    Refer to
    Set up accounts
    article to create a new user account.



    Write to us with the status of converting the current user account to Local user account on the computer for further assistance. Your reply is most important for us to ensure we assist you accordingly.

    Hello Errol,



    Thank you for posting on Microsoft Community.



    Along with the suggestion given by Brenda Woollard, I would like to add few more word to the above post.



    If you have linked the current user account to Microsoft account, you can convert the same account to
    Local user account. However, keeping at least one Microsoft account with administrative privileges on the PC will let you enjoy all the
    Windows delightful features like Cortana (your new personal assistant),
    Spotlight feature, download apps and games from Windows Store and many more.



    To convert the current Microsoft user account to
    Local user account
    follow the steps below:




    • Sign in into your
      Microsoft user account
      on Windows 10.

    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard, type
      Settings and select the top most search result.

    • Click Accounts and under Your emails and accounts
      click on sign in with a local account instead option.

    • Enter your Microsoft account's password and click on Next.

    • Type in the
      Password
      and Password Hint that you want set for your local account and click
      Next. Click on Sign out and Finish button.


    To create another user account, follow the suggestion given by Brenda Woollard
    from the above post.
