I've been using Copilot for quite q while now and never had to "log in". But tonight, when I had it opened I clicked on one of the buttons that was listed on the Copilot interface, "Learn Something New" was its label. And what appeared was a Copilot log on page to sign in with either a Microsoft account or using Google and Apple. Well, I don't want to log into anything, I just want to make a query like I've done dozens of times. So I closed it and reopened Copilot and I can't get rid of this Log in page! I shut down the computer, restarted it and opened Copilot and still get this Sign In page. How can I get the Ask a Question interface and not have to log in!!

I'm using a local account to use Windows 11. build 8894.
