Another good reason to go for the Pro version of whatever is out there – but the strange thing is, some computer suppliers, manage to have a local account [created] on the computers THEY sell! How do they do it, during setup, in Home, if it doesn’t cater for that? Hiren’s CD? Or something else? The tech version of some paid software? A cracked [pirated] windows 10 Home LOL…shudder.

Yes, Microsoft is making it harder to use Windows 10 Home using a local account and many users are not very happy about it.

It talks about “I don’t have the sign-in info”, which this build doesn’t have! How do I create a local user in Win 10 Home?

I cannot create a Microsoft Live ID, because ironically I do not know the user’s email sign-in details LOL. Are they truly locking Home edition users out of creating a local user?
