You set your PC to auto logon with a Microsoft ID, I do it on my desktop PC. Sign in User Account Automatically at Windows 10 Startup

Sure but this means that MS have basically not thought this through or if they have, they have not given clear guidelines so here is mine:
1) always login with MSA.
2) If you do change to a local account, be aware the link of digital licence and MSA is lost, and you would need to relogin with MSA to re-establish digital link.
3) If dual booting with two digital licences (eg one for home and one for pro), make sure you use a different MSA on each version. Do not set up each version with both MSAs to avoid logging into wrong one (in case that changes digital licence linked to that MSA).
When you log in with a local account, activation says activated with a Digital License. If you log into the same machine with an MS Account it say activated with a Digital License tied to your MSA account.
NO! NO! NO! It is making me sign in with a password every log in - but my two other users do not. How do I remove the darn password, I dont want it!!
With MS account:-
run netplwiz, uncheck box saying user needs password to login.
At next screen, enter password, and confirm, ok
Reboot pc.
Only problem is if you remove need to enter password, you do not stop to select other users. Just better to have a pw for each account with multiple users.
If I did this, would my license still linked to my MS account? Will it boot straight to the Desktop? When I first upgraded to 1607 I linked my license to my MS account, then switched back to a local account without a password.
Has anyone else read for the past month or so all licenses show up as Retail, even if you upgraded from OEM?
