How Do I Switch to a Local Account Sign-in for Windows?

❓ Windows 10 and 11 setup want you to log in with a Microsoft account. I'll show you how to restore a local account sign-in.

❓ Switching to a local account
Setting up Windows 10 or 11 asks you to use a Microsoft account, which many people don’t want. To switch back to a local account, go to Settings - Accounts - Your Info - “Sign in with a local account instead,” and follow the prompts. Your Microsoft account will still be associated with the machine for certain apps.
