This is the scenario, I bought a laptop from dell which has windows 8.1 installed on it, I let the guy from dell configure the operating system, now, when I want to add an account, I discovered that I should create an account in Microsoft to be able to add an account on the laptop, I am just wondering how can the guy from dell configure my local account, did he add an email? an email that I dont know? or is it possible to configure windows 8.1 without adding an email account just a local account, if he add an email just to be able to create my local, how can I discover it? Can someone help me on this, I search the internet and search about how to change the email address associated with my local account, but I cant do the procedure because the options are not available in my laptop, I am wondering maybe the guy from dell only add a local account, attach here is the picture that I am talking about, please can someone tell me if I only have a local account

I am just wondering how can the guy from dell configure my local account, did he add an email?
The very first intial boot after Windows is installed and the first user is created, there is an option to create a local user that isn't connected to your Microsoft account, its not 100% obvious but its also not hidden.
or is it possible to configure windows 8.1 without adding an email account just a local account, if he add an email just to be able to create my local, how can I discover it?
Of course it is. There is an existing question and answer with details instructions on how to do it.
