    To remove the Microsoft Account from an account thats signed in under a Microsoft Account, you have to switch to a local account.

    Open Start > Settings > Accounts > Your info

    Click sign in with a local account instead

    Enter your current password

    Click Next

    Enter a name, password, confirm it, enter a hint

    Click Next

    Click Sign out and Finish

    Sign into the account
