Windows 10: Theres local user in my log-in screen that I cannot get rid of.

Every time I open my pc, there's a local user that fails to auto log-in and I have to then switch to my own user before I can use my pin. It's extremely frustrating because I cannot enter the local user to delete it nor can I see it in users or anything, how do I get rid of it? So far I have spend the whole day trying all sorts of ''fixes'' even a few from this forum, but nothing workd, it simply wont go away.And the weird part is that the local user is in my name but I have never created a local user..

How do I change log on from microsoft email logon to a local log on

Hello,

Thank you for your interest in using Windows 10.

Refer to these steps to convert Microsoft account into Local User account:

• 
  Click on Windows button, then click on
  Settings.
  
• 
  Click on Accounts then click on
  Your account.
  
• 
  Click on Sign in with a local account instead.
  
• 
  Following the Online instructions.
  

If the issue still persists, I would suggest you to create a new Local user account and check if that helps you.

• 
  Press “Windows key + X” and click on “Control Panel”.
  
• 
  Click on “User Accounts” and click on “Manage another Account”.
  
• 
  Click on “Add a new user in PC Settings”. Follow the on screen directions to complete the process.
  

Hope this information helps you. Please do let us know if you need further assistance.

Hi johngalt, thank you for you suggestion: I did enable 'Enumerate local users on domain-joined computer', however the result remained identical. The login screen just shows the last user logged in and the 'Other' option ...
