Activate Windows 10 M365 E3/E5 Plan on Domain Joined Environment

[Aaqib Afzal]

Hi

If purchased M365 E3 or E5 License plan which consists of Windows 10 Ent Edition and if the environment workstations are already a part of a Active Domain in the organization, how do we go about activating the Windows 10 licenses without hindering AD operations in the domain environment?

Appreciate some advice on this

Thanks

If your devices are currently connected to a Domain Controller, then you will have to configure Hybrid Azure AD.

Also, the UPN of your local AD user accounts should match with the ones on Office 365.
