This is an example of Microsoft's complete insanity, dyslexia, or hydrocephelic (new word I learned today).
These idiots want us to go to a subscription model for everything - hence the logins all over the place. Since I'm a small business person, I legally qualify the community license to Visual Studio. Enter customer's corporate IT department plus it's insane Global Prevent VPN plus Microsoft's self inflicted technical ignorance. The tools go into a total CJ trying to figure out who I am.
This is the age old, "Microsoft, why do you make it so hard to use your tools?"
Don't even get me started on the POS Teams is.

you could just clone the hdd and try a windows 11 pro to windows 10 pro downgrade if you want...or go win22h2 update on the win 11 pro and wait till the next update
you can seperately sign into vs /o365 etc regardless of you local on win 11 pro

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.

looks at new laptop running windows 11 - has 5 windows 10 vms on it...
your starting post is almost an exact summary of my complaints. ms just crapping on itself for crapping sake.
don't even get me started on all of the bs authentication nonsense.

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
