I have created a local standard (non-Administrator) User account for children to use; with no associated email address or Microsoft account. The account appears in the "Family and Friends" part of the User Accounts control panel app, and appears as a log in option on the welcome screen.
When I try to log in the local account, it "signs out" within seconds and reverts to the welcome screen. I have tried it with and without password, and tried deleting it and re-establishing it.
Windows 10 is freshly installed and having no problems with the Administrator user account which has an associated Microsoft account.
Any ideas?
