Microsoft Account Sign in or Local Account Sign in?
Hi all,
Im curious and interested to know how the rest of Tenforums members sign in to their laptops/PC's?
In my case I only have one device with Windows 10..and thats my laptop.
My only other device is a Smartphone which is Android.
Im always trying to decide which is the best way to sign into my laptop and my feelings can differ month to month lol
Are there others out there with just a laptop or PC. How do you sign in?
I realise its a personal choice. If I had a couple of Windows devices and liked to Sync everything between the two devices then for me the choice would be clear..it would be a Microsoft Account sign in.
In the past prior to Windows 10 I used to just use a Local Account to sign in . However since Windows 10 even with just my single laptop Ive been signing in with my Microsoft Account but Im considering now going back to a Local Account.
I thought Microsoft were gearing everything towards the Microsoft Account sign in because they were pushing Windows 10 as a mobile operating system. I thought they might possibly even phase out the Local Account sign in so I might as well get used to the Microsoft Account sign in method..but theyve quit the phone market now so now Im not so sure.
I would be interested in other peoples thoughts on the most appropriate laptop sign in method if you only have one Windows device
