It wouldn't let me login the other day until I completed my signup for "hello" whatever the f-that is. I had to pull the ethernet cable THEN I could login to windows. I promptly disabled any signup that had "hello" in the description. I have exactly 1 windows machine in my house and I am pretty close to making it 0. I was careful to setup that machine before connecting it to the internet so I could create a local account. The hoops people have to jump through just to use something they've paid for is getting pretty outlandish.
