Default Windows 8.1 Store

Usually I logon on Windows using local account with password. Sometimes I
want to use new programs like Windows Store or other and system forces me to
change to Microsoft account. But every time I must change to MS account, I
must go another email to receive code and confirm code and password. Isn't
this too complicated? I suppose logging with Microsoft account password,
leaving it on system is not safe enough.

Why does it bother you to use the MS account? You obviously already
have it so you're over the "I don't want to create one" problem.

It's because if I go to bathroom, some one could use my MS account and do
something wrong.

Yes, that could be a problem. You are wise to be very cautious.
