Second account on Win 10 Machine

[rycrow99]

I am starting a little home business and I want to use my only computer for both personal and my business. However when I added a 2nd log in it appeared to display the same desktop items (I.e. shortcuts) from my personal account. when I removed these items, my personal log in also had them removed (just deleted the shortcuts from the desktop).
Is there a way to add a 2nd log in that is admin capable, but appears to be a new fresh log on and independent from personal for the business to use?

Are you creating local accounts, or Microsoft accounts?

Local accounts will nothing about any other accounts, be they Admin or Standard.
MS accounts WILL sync through cloud magic.

I am creating MS accounts, it sounds like this is not the right thing to do?

Correct.
Make a Local account.

On all of systems, all accounts are local, except for a single MS admin account, used only when actually needed.
Normal ops, be it regular or Admin, is with a local account that exists only on that specific PC.
