biggest difference is you need to login with a Microsoft acct to be able to get apps from the Microsoft store,, after you get what you want you can change back to a local acct .not sure why disabling the need to type in a password ,it works for me on my 2 devices
I just tried an experiment. If I change to my Microsoft Acct through User Accts in Control Panel, then uncheck the password requirement on startup, I do not get the log in screen. Windows boots straight up.
But if I am in user acct and log into Microsoft acct through the Feedback App, it then asks me for a password the next time I boot up, whether I uncheck the requirement for a password or not.
Really strange!!
not sure ,don't use ,user acct, to login as I'm the only users of my computers ,never heard of logging in through feedback app
Yes the same Microsoft account.
I only have one Microsoft account and one User acct. Both are used by me. I only use the User acct.
Regarding the feedback app, the point I've been trying to make all along is that the Feedback app requires the user to log in but it does not have a logout button.
I have searched and searched inside the Feedback app window for a way to logout, but this is entirely absent.
I personally believe that this is what causes the problem. You login to your Microsoft acct, close the Feedback popup window after you've left feedback, but you are NOT logged out. You remain logged in. This is why it asks for your Microsoft password the next time you boot up.
I do not think it is right that a Microsoft app should be changing an account on someone's computer without their knowledge, then not reverting to the former account once the app is closed down. Even if there was some wording to this effect, such as "Warning: By signing in to your Microsoft account you are about to change your system from a User Account to a Microsoft Account" that would be a big help.
There is nothing worse than being suddenly asked for a password on boot up, especially when you have never used a password to log into Windows.

the app it did no require me to sign in when I was signed into win10 using my microsft acct , iam always signed in with said acct .
if you signe into windows and go to the info in my first post about typing ,netplwiz in to run and uncheck sign in with password ,then put in your password ,you should not be asked again to sine into windows
