• Right click on Start button and select “Command Prompt (Admin)”.
• Type “sfc /scannow” and press Enter.
• After the scan is complete, type “exit” and press Enter.

Windows 10 only allows login with Microsoft account, my Wife's account is not available on login screen.

Hi Scott,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

We regret the inconvenience caused to you. We will be glad to assist you with your issue.

This issue might have occurred if your Wife account was a Local Account and when you have Synchronized your Microsoft Account to play Mine craft game, your Wife local account might have got synchronized to your Microsoft Account and
hence the user account is your Microsoft Account now. However to be sure if this is the issue, I suggest you to check how many user accounts are listed on the laptop.

1. Login to the system with your ID and password.

2. Now right click on the Start menu
and select Control panel.

3. Open User Accounts.

4. Now select Manage another account.

5. Check if your Wife user account is listed there.

If your Wife account is not listed there then it means your Microsoft account is synchronized with the local account. In this case you can convert the account in to local Account again. However we suggest you to create another
Microsoft Account as it is required to download and play games and apps from Windows Store.

Step 1: To convert Microsoft Account into Local Account.

1. Click on the Start Menu and select
settings.

2. Now select Accounts.

3. Click on the Your e-mail and accounts
and click on the option Sign in with a Local account instead.

4. follow the onscreen instruction.

Step 2: To create New Microsoft user account.

You can refer to the link below for more information on
how to create new user account:

Note: Applies to Windows 10 as well.

For reference: One email address to sign in everywhere
