I followed a brief tutorial about how to migrate my Windows 8 installation from one Live account to the other. The tutorial said you switch from the first Live account to a local account. And from that local account, you log into your new live account. I did this without any problems.
My issue is that whenever I restart my Computer, it defaults to asking me for credentials for my 'Local' account. There are two images of 'keys' under the input areas where I can select my Live account and log in that way, or stay with the local, which appears to be the systems new default way to attempt to log me in.
I have checked in my Control Panel at Control Panel\User Accounts and Family Safety\User Accounts\Manage Accounts
, and I get the option to modify my Live account, or the Guest account, which is turned off. Not the Local account.
I also followed the instructions from this post saying to run lusrmgr.msc
in a cmd
. I checked my listings there, and nothing seemed available for deletion. The options I get from this window are:
- Administrator
- Guest
- HomegroupUser$
- Mcx1-Rob - Media Center Extender
- stat30fbliss - My current logged in account
- UpdatusUser - Used to provide Nvidia Software Updates
I tried deleting stat30fbliss
but it said it was my current logged-in account, so I cancelled.
