Windows 10: Observations and Experience of a CUSTOMER

Let's get the obvious things out of the way. About six 6 years ago I created a Microsoft account using my then-current email. About 4 years ago I got hacked and had to change email my address. At that time Microsoft would not let me change the name of my account and said I needed to delete my hacked account and create a new one.

Shared Experience

Hello Zyxian,

If Shared Experience was turned off and still the message keeps coming up without you signing in to your Microsoft account, we recommend that you sign in to your account; turn it off, then check if the issue persists. If the issue persists, kindly roll back
to the previous build. It will be best if you check the OS build by following the steps below.

• Open Settings.
• Click Update & History, under Update status, select Update history.
• Check the OS Build; then look for the parallel OS Build to install
  here.
• Reinstall Creators Update.

Observe if the same scenario persists.

Let us know if the solution works.

Vanessa,

I don't want to sign in. That is the point. I use a local account on my computer. I shouldn't have to log in to tell it not to use Shared Experience. Shared Experience is not looking at the setting that it is off.

I've just been ignoring it. Looking at it as another update fail.
