Keep getting an error message

Anonymous

I am getting the following message when I switch my laptop on - "We need to fix your Microsoft account (your password has probably been changed) Select here to fix it in the shared experiences settings."

Now here's the thing. I have deliberately changed my login to only a pin number because I do not want my email account, facial or biometrics login etc etc. How do I stop this error message from popping up?

If the only way to stop this message is to change my login details to email account or biometrics etc, then frankly that is abusive and Microsoft have no right to be so intrusive. I would like these messages to stop please, if not then I shall be uninstalling and reverting to linux, thank you.
