    I don't totally get how the account I made is working. I'm setting up my old Asus laptop to give to my mom with Windows 10. Let's say her normal email is mom @ comcast .net. I had made the account when setting up the OS with that name. But it sems to have made a Microsoft account, with an email with that name.

    Like I'll go to outlook.com and login with the account I made, and the email has the same address as her normal email account but isn't the same account.

    You didn't have to create any account, pay attention during installation it lets you skip that part.
