  1. Problems with Windows Account log-in and Windows Store


    Hi.

    I just got a brand-new HP laptop that runs Windows 10 Home 1903.

    I set my Windows account details, but it does not log in correctly.


    I tried to reset the password, restart the system, even reset Windows from scratch with no luck. It seems there is a problem with Windows Store App which prevents the system from updating. The Windows Store icon is in grey, and does not launch.


    I tried to Reset Windows Store, but nothing happens. I also tried to uninstall the App, but it simply does not work.


    Appreciate any help.


    Thanks.

    :)

    As you may already know, Windows 10 (as well as Windows 8) allow you to log in with a valid Microsoft account, instead of creating a local account that only works on your machine. However, you may prefer to keep a local account for privacy reasons. If you do, though, some Windows 10 features—like Cortana—may not work. Despite the default behavior, the Windows 10 Store is not one of them. You can still log in to your Microsoft account for just the Store without switching to a full Microsoft account. The process, however, is not terribly obvious. To do so, follow these steps:

    • Launch the Store from your Start menu.
    • Click the user icon next to the search box.
    • Click “Sign-in” from the menu that appears.
    • Choose “Microsoft account” and log in like normal.
    • When the “Make it yours” box appears do not enter your password. Instead, click “Sign in to just this app instead.”

    Problems with Windows Account log-in and Windows Store

    Strange Windows 10 User Account issue.

    Unfortunately I had done those steps numerous reboots, it just, reappears for no good reason. The base account isn't even a Microsoft account, it's a local account.

    I haven't quite tried the built in administrator account on W10, but so far in my experience on my own computer, the built in account seemed to have absolutely no more control than I did on my own.

    It's just strange, I go in, it warns me twice about deleting the account, then it's gone. Reboot, and it's back?

    EDIT: Just to specify, both command line and Netplwiz both say only HIS account exists on the computer, it doesn't list this rogue account. This is what I meant in my first post about the fact that even Windows doesn't seem to believe it exists, HALF the time. *Frown Problems with Windows Account log-in and Windows Store :(
