 That is exactly the problem stated. 
 
Not everyone wants to give their email address to Microsoft, it seems.

In fact, the only time I EVER have to type in my email address is when I'm logging in to the computer.  In all fairness, this may be because I've only installed a couple of free card games and the free ESPN app.  I just don't use many "apps" with Windows...just applications such as the full MS Office, Firefox, Adobe Acrobat (full version, not reader), and other applications that I need for my business. | 
	
 Hmmm, could that be... because you already gave it to them???
