Windows 10: I am not able to log into my Microsoft Account on my Windows 11 computer even though I am...

I got an email a little while ago that said my microsoft account had been closed. I submitted an appeal form as I did nothing to receive the closure and the next day it was opened back up however, since my account was closed I am unable to sign into it on my Windows 11 PC. A sign up window pops up every few minutes asking me to sign in but it says there is no microsoft account associated with that email. I am able to log into Microsoft.com and I even added a second email and a phone number to try and use those to sign in but it either does nothing or says an illegal state change was requested.

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
