Hi Eric,

Welcome to Microsoft community and thank you for posting your query.

Sorry for the inconvenience caused to you. Let me help you to fix the issue.

To assist you better, I would like to know are you logged-in using Microsoft account?

Let’s try simple steps and check if that helps in resolving the issue. I would suggest to convert the current user account to the local user account.

• 
  Go to settings and click on Accounts.
  
• 
  Click on Your email and accounts and click on
  Sign-in with a local account instead.
  
• 
  Enter the password, click on Next
  and follow the onscreen instruction to convert into local account.
  

Once you are done converting to local user account, convert your local user account to Microsoft account. Follow the above steps skip step 3 and click on
Your email and accounts and click on Sign-in with a Microsoft account instead. Enter the
password, click on Next and follow the onscreen instruction to convert into Microsoft account.

Hope this helps. If you need further assistance with Windows, let us know and will be glad to help.
