Sign into Windows 10 with Office 365 account?
Is there a way that we can configure Windows 10 so that users can sign into the PC using their Office 365 account? We have some staff using shared PCs at a temporary branch office. We don't want to g...
2. Can multiple different Office 365 users log into the same PC?
If all that users are in the same tenant, yes they can login into the same PC. Same like local AD, you can login into any computer in the same domain.

Yes, they can sign in however they will not have access to OneDrive/Outlook except through the web interface. It's fine for quick access but if the user is going to be logging on regularly, it would be convenient to have this setup for them.

This is not true. Different persons can log on on a Win10 machine with their Office365 account. Each user can use their onedrive.
When you have Intune you can deploy Office ProPlus with shared device so every user have their one Office ProPlusOnly the first user that login gets admin rights on that device the other users are normal accounts.
Jumping in on this discussion a year late, but is there a way to set other users on the computer admin rights? Thank you!
Yes that is possible.
In Azure active directory ==> Devices ==> Device settings.
There you can add a group . The members of that group will be admin on the machine where they login with there credentials.

It may not be true for you but it is for me. Users can logon on to any Windows 10 machine that is joined to the Azure AD with their email and password but the machine will setup a NEW account for them with all the default settings and extra (unwanted) games and addons. Privacy settings will also set to default. It will not be the same profile they see on their main PC. It is not a "roaming" profile and will not include any customizations. Also, if they want to access their OneDrive and Outlook files, they will either have to connect the OneDrive app to their account and wait for it to sync (same with Outlook) OR log on to the portal.office.com.
We are a non-profit using the free Enterprise E2 version which gives us access to some features of Azure AD but not InTune or ProPlus. Maybe this is the difference. Or maybe you know some other way to do this. If so, please share.
