Windows 10: Local Account + Windows Store. Does it change anything?

If I log in to the Windows Store with my Microsoft account will it mess with my local account that I use to log in to my computer. I wanted to get a game only available on the Microsoft store, but if it starts logging me into OneDrive and changing my log in to Microsoft I just won't bother....

Local Account and Store Access


Hello PJLLB,

Using step 5 in the tutorial below should work for you to sign in to the Store with your Microsoft account while staying signed in to Windows with your local account.

Ah, ok. I see now.

You have added your MSA to used by other apps in her local account.

The only way to have the MSA use the same display name as the local account would be to change the name of the MSA. However, this would affect all PCs that use this MSA though.
