Is support for multiple local usernames planned, or does MS intend to support a single local account only? We have a use case where we need to support multiple local admins/usernames, and also use these unique local usernames to help with third party MFA authentication for the various teams that require these different usernames.

In the current version of Windows LAPS only management of a single account is supported.

      This is another feature that I am getting lots of feedback on so I will be looking into it. To be clear, even if we do add it to our roadmap it will not make it in time for this initial new version of LAPS.

        That's understandable. I hope to see it in a near-future version though! Thanks!
