using email acct to log in your windows 10 on pc?

Anybody does this is it safe? I use my email passwood acct to log in to my pc?is there any problems with doing this.

I set up a new Outlook.com account to use for my Windows 10 machines. I have yet to get a single e-mail in to this account, and I've been using it since last June.

I've been using my Outlook.com account as well. One thing I like is that you can set up a Pin code to log in to Windows 10 with rather than having to enter your full password as well. I also have two factor authentication set up on my microsoft account for that added sense of security.

Certainly better than folks who use a local login and then set it up to automatically log in so a thief can get all of their stuff just by stealing the phone, tablet, laptop.

Its been safe for me for over a year now ,,like already suggested ,don't use you main email acct ,create an outlook.com acct, just for use with windows 10 ,

Why is there a problem using your main email acct?

nope not at all ,[that I know of anyway ] I guess we are just suggesting the use of another acct just to be on the safe side ,
never hurts to be safe .
I actually do you my most used Microsoft acct . but for important emails I use a non Microsoft from my internet service provider ..

Frankly...I have nothin to hide...there isn't any special on my pc or emails...no secret to the universe here

Btw how do u guys set up a restore point on windows 10 ? What other safety precautions should I take?
