Hello!

I have to create a local account on my PC to create videos and media for the product I am creating. However, Windows 10 does not allow me to add local users because I am using my MS account (simply because Windows 8.1 tricked me into it by making it appear it would only log in the Windows Store using that and instead switching the WHOLE THING to login with the MS Account...).

Anybody knows how to do add a local user?

Thanks!

    Microsoft doesn't help? I found this:

    I swear that option was not there when I looked or was so much below everything else that I didn't notice it at all.

    You may also run compmgmt.msc. In the tree, select "System Tools" -> "Local User and Groups" -> "Users". From the "Actions" menu, select "New User...".

    (And I think they've deliberately tried to make it hard to find...)

    My son can't use an MS account.  When he does, his machine freezes as soon as he connects to the internet.   He HAS to use a local account.  It might have something to do with get the Minecraft Windows Store edition and it failed.  Not sure.
