Hi
There are some limitations on what Windows will do if you are not signed into a Microsoft account.
I wasn't aware that using Edge was one of them, but you can go to the Microsoft account page and create an account.
Create your Microsoft Account Today Once you have a Microsoft account set up, you should be able to log into your computer using it.
It will consist of your email address and the password you create with Microsoft.
Alternately you can chose to use a different browser like, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.
In my opinion either of these works better then Edge does anyway.
I use my Microsoft account to log in but many people prefer to use a personal account that doesn't require them to send so much of their information to Microsoft when they use their computer.
