Microsoft Account
A Microsoft account is an email address and password for logging in to Windows

8.
You can use any email address. We recommend using the address you use to
communicate with friends and log into your favourite web sites, however.
The Microsoft account also allows you to purchase or download apps from the Store
and install them on up to five devices.
Once you have logged on to your PC using a Microsoft account, you also have
access to the various services and programs provided by Microsoft.
•
The contact information and status updates for your friends from services such
as Hotmail, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn will be updated automatically as
soon as you run these services using your Microsoft account.
•
You can also access and share your photos, documents and other files via
SkyDrive, Facebook and Flickr.
•
Your personal settings, including designs, language settings, Internet favourites
and apps will be synchronised with each PC running Windows
®
8 that you log on
to.

running Windows
