Sign-in with work account?

It seems that in the initial dev build release, a Microsoft account is required to sign in to the browser.  Do you plan to support work accounts as well?  I would expect edge to work with whatever ac...

natelaff Hmm, I did review that page, and even going back now I don't see any mention of known issues, but I'll take your word for it.

    I'm sorry but the description of the know issue has nothing to do with the issue raised above and that I encounter as well:
    The article talks about limitations of features with accounts such as Sync.

    The issue I am seeing is that I can only sing-in with an MSA. A Work or School account option isn't available at all. Whereas colleagues of mine have the choice of signing in with either of those.

      Tony Behnam It is not possible to sign-in with your Work or School account yet. As you can see on here: https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/welcome/update?channel=dev&version=75.0.139.1

      It is still listed as coming soon.

      So sorry your colleagues may not be aware that they are actually loggin in with a MSA account and not an AAD account.

        nOrphf  @Elliot Kirk  Thanks but I think you didn't understand.

        That page has only one known issue about signin and it is a problem about sync not available for Work or School account. No where does it say Work or School accounts are not supported for sign in.

        Furthermore, my colleagues know perfectly well the difference between a Work school accoutn and an MSA. Our accounts linked to our corporate emails cannot be used as MSA. But that is not even the question here. My problem is that the sign in dialog offers me just the MSA option while their setup proposes both options as you can see in the screenshots below.

        Is this clearer now?

        Tony

    Elliot Kirk  Thanks, that's what I was missing.  I would not expect Known Issues to be classified as 'Tips', and hadn't clicked through that button.
