Sign into Windows 10 with Office 365 account?
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.
For a step by step guide give a look to https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-azureadjoin-user-frx
Excellent. Thank you both. A few follow-ups...
1. I assume this will NOT work with Windows 10 home edition?
2. Can multiple different Office 365 users log into the same PC?
3. Is there anything I need to do to configure Azure in my Office 365 account?
4. The article that Salvator linked to shows how to dō this for First Run Experience. Is there a similar how-to for a PC that was previously setup without connecting to Azure AD?
Thanks!!
- You can synchronize your AD Domain en Azure with your Office 365 in Azure. Then you can set time for sichronization. In that way, you can reset your pwd in AD and after the synchro time, the Office Account can have the same pwd than AD account.
- Correct.
- Yes. At login you input the user(name), which should be one of the users in AAD.
- There are some settings in AAD you could want to configure. If you have an existing Office 365 subscription, you already have an Azure AD tenant.
- Yes. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/active-directory-azureadjoin-user-upgrade. But be sure to understand the difference between the actual AAD Join and the BYOD Join. Point 2 above works only with AAD Join.

1. I assume this will NOT work with Windows 10 home edition?
You need the minimum of Windows 10 Pro, for the best experience get Enterprise. You can upgrade a windows 10 to a Enterprise license just by changing the product key.
2. Can multiple different Office 365 users log into the same PC?
Dont know the answer to this one. i guess it is possible but i dont know if it is efficient.
3. Is there anything I need to do to configure Azure in my Office 365 account?
Default everything is setup just fine. If you want to do more like using policies etc you need the Intune subscription.
4. The article that Salvator linked to shows how to dō this for First Run Experience. Is there a similar how-to for a PC that was previously setup without connecting to Azure AD?
You can add a pc or laptop to Azure AD in the setting menu, Go to Setting -> System -> info and there you can join Azure AD.
2. Can multiple different Office 365 users log into the same PC?

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.

Thanks Jerry. This is very helpful!
If anyone has feedback on #2 RE: multiple Office 365 users logging into the same PC, I would welcome your insight. Thanks!
