You don't.

Generally, it is made extremely hard to go around, for a reason.
Allowing it would mean that 3rd party app sites could steal/resell made apps.
Said 3rd party app sites could also add their own "toys" to said apps, you do NOT want that.

You can download and install apps while still signing into the computer with local account (not microsoft account) as long as you remember to always choose "sign in for this app only" when installing/using said apps. (this still needs you to have microsoft account to sign into the app with)

99.99% of what is in windows store, can be also found as plain desktop version for either cheaper or at same price allowing you to avoid your account problem.

You can sign up for a free Microsoft account (i.e. "---@hotmail.com"), which will allow you access to the Windows 10 Store.

Seriously, there's already a "free" way that Microsoft has available, no shortcuts needed...

You can make any email address to work as microsoft account. Having no access to the email address you want to use could throw you in for a loop though.
myaccountisatgoogle@gmail.com would work as well as anything else you have access to.
just go to https://signup.live.com and fill in the details.
