    Is this really a microsoft account


    Can this be correct? I thought I used this as a local account sign in.

    Hello meebers, :)

    You can use the an option in the tutorial below to verify if the account is a local or Microsoft account if that's what you're hunting for.

    I wrongly assumed that only .outlook and .msn. accounts could be Microsoft accounts. After going thru the link you provided, my .gmail account can and is one after I verified it. Tx Brink.
