Windows 10: How do I set my Microsoft account? It allows me to login not connected to the Internet?

How do I login using my Microsoft account but have set so when it’s not connected to an Internet connection, it’s still allows me to log onto my computer without setting up a local account? I know I know it can be done without setting up a local account and I still want Microsoft account. And don’t really care about a local account. Can Microsoft please explain have a Microsoft for personal computers and have it set so that I can still login to my account if I can’t get on the Internet.

LAN Connection settings reset after restart

Not sure. I checked out a permissions fix from the Microsoft forums where I accessed the registry Internet Settings and made sure to add my Microsoft account under the users and checked to allow myself to modify settings. I checked out the settings on my own account and it listed me as an administrator on the computer, so I'm not sure what the root of the problem is. Also, in Windows 8.1, is there a "Local users and groups" applet like there was in Win 7? I don't see it in Computer Management like it was in Win 7.

 

Settings can't be opened using the built-in administrator account


Hello,
Unfortunately I have the same issue as Dabz from upgrading win7 to win10.
I've tried opening settings using all the suggested methods and it will not load using my account with Administrator access nor the built-in Administrator profile. I also tried other methods not listed such as using Run. Control panel is just a stepping stone to add users in Settings.
I'm also having explorer.exe issues, which I believe is preventing Settings from loading.
Using cmd (Admin) I successfully created a new user profile [and granted admin access also using cmd (Admin)], however win10 will not allow this account to log on. win10 does not list this new user within control panel but it does in the start menu. win10 will not allow to log in or switch to the new account via the start menu either.
I can access settings in Safe Mode but this will not allow me to create a new account.
Any help/suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Cheers

 

Getting rid of Microsoft account login requirement

Yes, Win10 Home does that if it's connected to the internet while you boot up the first time, only Pro offers the option to continue setup using a local account. The trick with Win10 Home is to disconnect from the internet before booting, then it will offer to set up a local account. Win11 Home is even more constrained and cannot get as far as setting up the first account without an internet connection. It insists on being connected so that it can check for updates first, only Pro allows you to continue set up without an internet connection. Again, only Win11 Pro will offer a local account option.
