    Sign in with a Microsoft account instead creates a new profile in Windows 10

    I am trying to convert a Local Account on Windows 10 to use a Microsoft account. When I use the "Sign in with a Microsoft account instead" option, it does not give me the "Switch to a Microsoft account on this PC". I get a "Make it yours" screen. When I
    put my Microsoft account (not a Microsoft email account, a gmail account) email and password and click "Sign in", it spins its wheels for a while and then prompts to Set up a PIN. Set a PIN does not work (Something went wrong) and I have to Skip for now.

    After all this I find the Local account has not been converted to a Microsoft account. A second profile has been created for the Microsoft account. I do not want a second profile. I want to convert the Local account profile that has been in use for considerable
    time.

    local account converted to microsoft account

    Hi all

    I was adding onenote to a secondary device and thru testing Microsoft account has not been converted to the local account... :( managed to set my pc up as a microsft acount and am no longer able to access the pc using my established username and password..

    The threads are saying to log in wigh microsoft credentials like associated email and password, i guess, but entering email address with @ symbol not an option as dell sign in screen interprets thsame as backslash and treats any letters proceeding the @
    as the domain.

    Consequently i've since removed my windows account from that user in both my microsoft account and also attempted to from a separate user on same machine, tho not sure if thst would've worked..

    am i doing something wrong by attempting to logon to machine using microsoft associated gmail and password. Dell latitude 7450

    Thanks
