Windows 10: Multiple identical accounts

Since I upgraded from Windows 10 2004, the Settings app has been reporting 2 identical accounts, however Control Panel reports only one. When I had problems with Windows Hello, I signed out from the MS account so now I have a Local Account, however I can no longer sign in again because of this weird account. Does anyone know why???
