I can't speak for Windows 11 but Windows 10 works just fine with Android and w/o an MSA where on Windows 10, without the MSA, the only thing I can think of is some apps are "only" on the Microsoft Store - but I can't think of any that matter where I must have thousands installed in Windows. -- Usenet - where experience speaks softly and insight runs deep.

I've only installed free apps from the microsoft store, which doesn't need a microsoft account, but I think even if you logon to the PC with a local account, you can logon to the store with a separate MS account?
