Help Removing Microsoft Account login

I am not sure if you want to switch to a local account instead of your Microsoft account, or if you want to keep your Microsoft account but login automatically instead of having to type the password.

See these tutorials:

• Local Account - Switch to in Windows 10 - Windows 10 Forums
• Sign in User Account Automatically at Windows 10 Startup - Windows 10 Forums

 

Use Microsoft account but with local password instead

As the other answer states, the latest November update allows Cortana to work with local accounts. However, I'll go into details about it since it's not as simple and clear cut as one might think. (the other answer didn't go into the details)

You'll still need to login with a Microsoft account, but the difference now is that the Microsoft account information can be JUST for Cortana as opposed to having the Microsoft account information for BOTH Cortana and your login. (which was an all or nothing type of deal) Make sense? In other words, with the November update, you log into Cortana with your Microsoft account ONCE and still keep the ability to use a local account to log into your computer at startup/resume.

To go through step by step, you simply click on Cortana and when it asks for your Microsoft account, you go ahead and login. Afterwards (here's the important step), you need to make sure to click on the "sign in to just this app instead" link so preserve the local account you're using. See below for a screenshot.

Login with Microsoft Account Instead not working

Hi Sunil,

This issue could be caused due to some corrupt user profile files. I would suggest you to create a new admin user account and then check if you have any issues switching it to a Microsoft account. If it was successful, then the old user account could be
corrupt. In this case, I would suggest you to try the following steps to migrate the files from the old user profile:

You must have at least three user accounts on the computer to complete these steps, including the new account you just created.

• Log on as a user other than the new user you just created or the user that you want to copy files from.
• Open the My Documents folder in
  File Explorer. Double-click the hard disk drive that Windows is installed on (it's usually your C: drive), double-click Users, double-click the folder with the name of your account, and then double-click My
  Documents.
• Click the Tools menu, and then click Folder Options.

If you don't see the Tools menu, press Alt.

• Click the View menu and select the chick box against 'Hidden items' to show hidden files.
• Locate the C:\Users\Old_Username folder, where C is the drive that Windows is installed on, and
  Old_Username is the name of the profile you want to copy files from.
• Select all of the files and folders in this folder, except the following files:
  
  • Ntuser.dat
  • Ntuser.dat.log
  • Ntuser.ini
• Right click, and then click Copy.
• Locate the C:\Users\New_Username
  folder, where C is the drive that Windows is installed on, and New_Username is the name of the new user profile you created.
• Right click, and then click Paste.
• Log off, and then log back on as the new user.

If you have e‑mail messages in an e‑mail program, you must import your e‑mail messages and addresses to the new user profile before you delete the old profile. If everything
is working properly, you can delete the old profile.
