Windows 10, "Switch to local user instead" doesn't appear on settings

I have been dealing with this issue for over a year. Let me explain everything here. Normally if you want to switch your Microsoft account to local user you just need to go in settings and click on the user section. It should show “switch to local user instead” option but I have never seen it. The only thing i see is "Manage my microsoft account" option and it really annoy me. I don't know what should i do with that since this forum never really gave me an good solution. Here's a screenshot in polish language

If there's no way to actually switch it can i transfer ALL of the user data (local user registry, appdata, desktop etc) to a other local user? And by transfer i really mean it, my user data is over 50gb and my disk has only 20gb left.

Hi idkman190,

I am Dave, I will help you with this.

Is there any other settings further down on that Accounts - Your info settings page, like an option to 'stop using that account to automatically log into Apps'?

2
Click your Start Button, then just type msinfo and press enter, please provide a screenshot of the resulting System Information window.

3
Open the Settings App.

Go to Accounts.

Select Emails and Accounts, is there is a work or school Email listed there?

Select Access Work or School, is there is a work or school Email listed there?
