    It doesn't even say the account exists anymore in the settings and control panel but it still says that a portion of my storage around 5~ GB are still being used by 'other people' and I still have the files of the other local account user profile in my computer and I can still access them, so how do I get the other local account user profile to reappear and become accessiable again so I can log back in to it again?My Laptop: Samsung Galaxy Book Flex2 AlphaVersion of Windows: Windows 11

    User account types

    There are fewer things that might go wrong with a local user account.
    • A local user account might develop a user profile fault.
    • An MSAccount might develop a user profile fault or it might suffer from some account / password online synchronisation problem

    You can switch the account to an MSAccount later on if you wanted. But you could also consider keeping your local user account as your day-to-day account and then adding an additional account to link to your MSAccount. That way, you could have the convenience of an MSAccount when you wanted it but could switch back into a local account at any time.

    Make sure that you have at least one password-protected Admin-level account
    • that is a local user account
    and
    • that is in addition to whichever account you end up using for your day-to-day activities.
    By doing so you are protected against the risk of your day-to-day account developing user profile faults. If your day-to-day account ever starts failing to log on & you get allowed in with a temporary profile then you can just log on with this additional Admin-level account to get back full access to your computer.
