Azure AD joined computer with multiple users - remember usernames?

We have several shared Windows 10 PCs. They are all Azure AD joined, cloud-only, no hybrid/on-prem stuff. Our users login with their organizational accounts only. There are no old-school local users ...

I never found an answer.
It has something to do with azure ad, (it also caused other problems) so I just canceled my subscription and unjoined. My problem went away. MS wanted to charge me to help, LOL

Sorry

  In addition to the Group Policy setting, did you add the Azure AD user in Settings?
  
  Go to Settings -> Accounts -> Other users. Then click "Add a work or school user," enter the user's Azure AD email address, and choose if they should be a Standard or Administrator level user.

    Thanks for the reply tcgcomputers and Joe_H5550 - I have been through this and added and removed the user a number of times. It shows the user account is AD joined in the work accounts even after rebooting the machine and logging into the machine as local admin - so now this is the account in use.
    
    - also crearted local user account (which is in use now) as admin, tried removing/disconnecting from AzureAD and readding
