  1. Windows 10 and MS account issues


    I am steadily learning all I can regarding Windows, programming languages, various software etc. at the community college. the one class I cannot find (and is the most important I feel) is one explaining everything related to the operating system, Windows. I recently spent 3 days chasing my tail trying to figure out the difference between my Google account, my MS account and my Xbox profile. On my desktop each user is identified by their MS account. I am assuming this is a Windows 10 thing right? Having 3 different MS accounts associated with each other has caused 3 "user" profiles to be created on my desktop it seems, or I am confused. Am I on the right path as to how Windows 10 identifies each user account? I cannot seem to find info online because I am probably not posing my question correctly, hopefully someone will understand... what I mean at least, in the community.....

    :)

    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 Windows 10 and MS account issues :(

    Window 10 Auto-Logon (Hotmail/MS Account)

    Hello everyone!

    So, i've updated my PC to Windows 10 and i have a little problem.

    Anyone knows how to auto-logon without asking for password using Hotmail/MS Account? I i've already tried the trick using "netplwiz" from Windows 8 wich always worked totally, and in Win10 it just does not work, it keeps asking me for password...

    Anyone knows how to bypass this without having to create a local account?

    Cheers.
