Got a couple new ones myself with this stupid Windows 8 on it.
Found a way around it.
Choose one account as administrator and password.
Go to desktop. It will be in lower left hand corner of the apps section.
Go to Control Panel on your desktop.
Add new user
Add name of user
At the bottom is says continue without microsoft account, create local account.
Put name in, do not add password, leave blank.
Click through until you get to your apps and click desktop in lower left corner.
Microsoft is forcing us to have and add these live accounts but you dont need it and can bypass it.
Good luck.
