Microsoft makes confusing move on Windows account switching

According to Neowin , Microsoft recently posted a series of instructions on its official website, including instructions on how to use Passkeys, enable advanced security features, and sign in without a password using a Microsoft account (MSA). Notably, the company also provided instructions on switching between a local account and an MSA, with the recommendation that users use MSA.

According to the company, MSA offers many benefits over local accounts, such as seamless integration with Microsoft services, enhanced security, and syncing across multiple devices. Meanwhile, local accounts are limited to one device and have no connection to the cloud.

However, Microsoft's sudden provision of instructions for switching from MSA to local accounts has raised many questions. Is this a sign that the company is relaxing its policies, or simply providing more options for users?

Whatever the reason, Microsoft's move shows its concern for user experience and its desire to provide more options for account management on Windows.
