:( Linking an account in this page is broken!
I had to change to another account also enabled for Insider builds, but I ended up with a client that is stuck at this status when selecting "Windows InsiderProgram":
Linking an account in this page is broken! As a workaround run "Command Prompt" as admin and execute: "REG DELETE HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Account /va /f".
The BIG issue is that this suggestion have absolutely NO effect!

The trick is to run the command prompt as an "admin" and then typing REG DELETE HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Account /va /f and entering it, this solves the problem.

The original suggestion fixed the problem for me as well - the dism command didn't work though, threw an error message.
C:\WINDOWS\system32>dism /online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:OneCoreUAP.OneSync~~~~0.0.1.0Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool

Error: 0x800f0950DISM failed. No operation was performed.Mind, I had to reopen the settings page twice for the status to change... - shafiul islamCopper Contributor
i forgot to say u have to do this first......
- At Start, type ‘command prompt’, a Best Match will be Command Prompt app. Right-click on the Command Prompt app, select ‘Run as administrator’.
- Select ‘Yes’ to allow the app to make changes to your device
- At the command prompt enter the following: dism /online /Add-Capability /CapabilityName:OneCoreUAP.OneSync~~~~0.0.1.0
- Press Enter. The reinstall will start progress. If you aren’t seeing progress, you can press Enter again.
- Once the reinstall is complete, you will be prompted to restart your device. If not prompted, you will need to restart the device yourself. then try with the "power shell" REG DELETE HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsSelfHost\Account /va /f (only f not f")

Thank you for your suggestion, but I have already tried this many times and it does NOT work.
