    There is no built-in Local Account in Windows, there is a built in Administrator account that is used for troubleshooting but should not be used as a normal account.

    All you have to do is create a new user account s Administrator and do not ad Microsoft Account details.

    The problem you have is you got Microsoft Support to remove the account and that was done wrong, it should have simply been removed from the Your Info settings page, not the registry, that is why I am saying the best option is to create a new account and move your data to that account.

    But also what I have also been saying is if your PC gets logged into a school on Azure AD you need that Microsoft Account on your PC.

    The only way to remove that account will be to search the registry for entries referring to that account, otherwise the only other solution is to create a new user account
