What makes you think you need to reinstall the OS? Are you having problems?

If you can sign in locally, I assume you can, you can sign out of the current Apple ID (delink) sign back in with your unique personalized Apple ID and password. That new Apple ID will establish you as the official Apple-recognized user.
