Link surface pro to O365 developer account

Greetings,

 

I have a O365 developer account and online setup that I use quite often. I'd like to link my surface pro 6 to this account much like a standard user does when they log in with their MS account.

 

The problem that I'm having is when I try to add "[User]@[domain].onmicosoft.com" it says it's not a valid Microsoft account.

 

How can I link my Surface Pro 6 so that it uses my developer environment? So when I use OneDrive, OneNote, etc... it'll use my developer environment. I appreciate any feedback and help about this.

Thanks,

-Matt

    Hi MattM1121 ,

     

    Your work account is not a Microsoft account. A Microsoft account is meant for personal use and usually has a live.com, outlook.com, or hotmail.com domain.

     

    To set up Windows 10 using a business account, you would need a Windows 10 Pro. You probably have Home version.
