Aquellos de nosotros que hemos pasado de Windows 7 a Windows 10 de forma directa y hemos creado una cuenta de Username local, nos hemos dado cuenta de que el The Windows Store was not active to be able to download universal applications. A fact that has led many to activate a Microsoft account to access those games and applications that respond to different reasons.

The store, however, can be opened, but you cannot download something without starting an account with Microsoft. The most curious thing of all is that recently you can open the Windows Store even if you have a local account, which is a great detail from microsoft for those who do not want to link an account with their computer or computer.

What is not known is when this change was decided or occurred. Microsoft could have added it in the summer via the Anniversary Update or recently turned it on for everyone quietly. What has happened is that you no longer need a Microsoft account to download free applications from the Windows Store.

How to download apps from the Windows Store with a local account

  • It is essential that a update check Windows 10 to download the latest stable version
  • You must create a local account from Settings> Accounts
  • he start windows store and we will have the different applications to download

It must be said that not all applications can work, since many are linked to Xbox Live, so it is normal that it does not allow you to download them from the local account. If you have Asphalt 8 and Cut the Rope 2 like two high-quality games that need nothing more than to wait for them to download to be able to play right away. If you already want to have your games and data saved through different devices, it is interesting to link a Microsoft account.

Remember that a local account can be used to fix problems in Windows 10.
