I already separately sign into O365 with Windows 11. Microsoft is just making it harder to find the local account options during setup.

I have nothing constructive to add other than that's a bummer having to fight with your tools. It will take some time to find and get used to the new ways of doing things but you're young and bright! 
I've not bought a laptop yet that came with an OS that didn't need upgrading or downgrading. Get a new SSD and put 10 Pro on it. Keep the old SSD just in case you decide you need to test in 11.

Talking with a coworker yesterday, we decided 11 was really Windows MeH-8, lol.
I've managed to get my laptop to be schizophrenic, which has some pros and cons. You have to pay attention to who apps think you are. Not sure if that happened because I'm a 365 admin but I remember battling the user piece. It was an upgrade from 10. A new little 11 desktop box virtually cloned the laptop, which actually made life easy for me, though I could see one might not want that in a lot of cases.
Guess I got used to the stacked taskbar in 10, I kinda like it when I have a bunch of office docs open. The recommended apps isn't ready for primetime in my book. There's some screwed up logic in what shows up there.
The 5 char user name thing is weird. It only applies to the primary user because... no clue.
The bright spot is it has seemed to maintain performance over time.

plus Fifty to everything you listed. I've always been too frustrated with Windows 11 to calmly state the issues you put above. I almost cried when my work machine forced an "upgrade" to 11. I was able to "downgrade" it back to 10.

Sorry, if I can avoid any work in the morning, I intend to be watching England complete a clean sweep against the Aussies and will be keeping any sort of device capable of receiving emails well out of arm's reach!

OK I'll guess: LOCATED? (LEAD COT anag) - no idea why "COT" ... so it's probably wrong.

The lead part is correct - think of a service and add a point

I got LEAD but what is the AR part?

When I saw that you'd told Griff that LEAD was correct, I looked for a synonym of discovered that was 7 letters long. It had to end in -D, and very unlikely -AD, so it was almost certainly LEA???D. But I can't explain the RNE part. NE is a compass point, but how RNE is a service point is beyond me.
EDIT: RN = Royal Navy (a service) + E (a point)?

I had the answer from LEAD, definition, and (7) but I was stuck on “service point” being something to do with Technology instead of two separate clues.
I should ken “point” by now…

he's in the US (i'm on the other side of the world); he does not have a password.
i haven't touched Apple anything for many years.
some casual googling suggests he can "restore" the iPhone, but all its data will be erased.
i suggested he go to the local Apple store with, if possible, a sales receipt, or whatever else may resolve any question of ownership.
i'd appreciate any additional advice you may have !
cheers, bill

Maybe I misunderstand, but you make it sound as if your friend is asking how to access his deceased brother's private information on that phone - the information that the brother had protected by a password (or similar mechanism) so that others should not have access to it.
So that others should not have access to it.
I really wish that they do not get access to the information that the deceased guy wanted to keep as his private. His death does not imply that he no longer has any dignity, any honor, to be protected. His private life is still his own. What he did not tell his brother when he was alive, he didn't want his brother to know. Respect that. Pay honor to that.
Although I have a smartphone myself, it is only because society demands it from you - they no longer know how to get in contact with you in person, by paper mail, email, ... Smartphones are The (Only) Way of Communication nowadays. But I keep no personal information on my phone. I have no need to protect it by any password - the startup PIN code is mandated by the network provider, not by me, and anyone can have it if they like. I keep my private writings on a desktop PC, several of them in files with strong encryption, handled by an external encryption program - asking MS for help (I am a Windows/Word user) won't help my descendants get access to my private thoughts after I am gone.
That is how it was before the age of smartphones. I honestly think we should keep it that way.

What you say, while true, is mostly misplaced. I have a "passcode" on my phone, but it is not to keep my family out (they all know what it is); it is to keep others out in the event my phone is lost or stolen. I would surmise that most folks have this same thinking. Should I expire, I would want my family to have complete access to any and all items on my phone.
I also have a "in case I die" box that contains accounts, keys, passwords, etc.
