Sign into Windows 10 with Office 365 account?
- Dec 12, 2016
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.
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 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.

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.

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.
