Anyone know how i can unlink my microsoft account from windows 10 ? Did it yesterday trying to fix outlook (i have now) but i don't want to login with my microsoft account, Only noticed this morning when my user icon changed as i logged in. The steps given on most sites don't work, i have no option to choose "login with a local account instead"

Any tips? Don't really want to create a new user.
 
Can you post a screenshot of your Settings > Accounts screen? Blur out any personal details.

Thats really weird, what happens if you click "Stop signing in to all Microsoft apps automatically" ?
Do you then get the option to stop signing into a Microsoft Account?
 
There is no need to create a new user. Try to sign in again. If forgot then reset your password easily. If still problem does not sort out then check Microsoft articles where they write how to overcome from this situation.
