I wish I didn't take the 8.1 update as things were just fine before!
That being said, I've lost a lot of functions, one being the subject being discussed here. I have tried the tutorial numerous times, as Admin., and even changing my user to a Standard; in both cases, it keeps giving me an error Code 0x80004005 (We're sorry, but something went wrong, your MS account cannot be changed to a local account.)
I will mention that I cannot access the Store, which seems to be tied into this problem (?).
I've been reading and searching for a fix (error code) with no luck.
Also, I can *see* my Local account name, and if I try setting up a New one, it tells me that User is already set up. So, it's still there, but I can't get to it.
Can anyone tell me what I need to do?
