These systems need to start various applications can only use.

Tip:
Automatic synchronization for Windows version 8.1 or above versions of the same system, requires the same account to log in. Because some applications require specific hardware or hardware configuration when the device is not configured at the same time, some applications cannot be synchronized and that needs attention. Get the application through the Windows store, use these applications on up to 5 computers.

Online accounts so convenient, but there are also disadvantages. Use network is one of the biggest hidden trouble of privacy. If your private information or files stored in the automatic synchronization of folders, and their online accounts login disclosure, others invade your space, which can be as casual as you view the saved data.

Tips:
For security reasons, it is not recommended to store important information in the default user directory, the system "library", OneDrive cloud local synchronized folder.

If more than one person using the computer, recommended by lowercase letters, numbers, symbols, or spaces, and other characters of strong passwords, and a strong password should not contain a complete word, it should not contain information that is easy to guess (such as your real name, account name, and date of birth, etc).

Local accounts without the convenience of
Local accounts security let it lose a lot of convenience. Because there is no network account if you often change place to work, not allowed to use a separate account on a different computer, although the account name can be the same, but in fact unable to link its data, with a different user name is nothing like this. Any settings you will not be synchronized between the PC you are using, in each computer you want to use the same files, settings, applications, and services can only be reset or specialized tools to migrate. Cloud information only through the browser landing page or install client to access the cloud. Meanwhile, also failed to get rich from a Windows app store applications.

In fact, at first it should be for everyone to create their own accounts, so that everyone can have their own desktop background, screen saver, each person can install their own programs, other person or program without affecting the environment in which they use. Maximum use of multiple accounts is more than using a computer, do not interfere.

Only one person uses the computer, use a different account, can be installed under each account uses a different software, so that you can create different tests or use environments, can effectively prevent interference between the software in the same environment. This is very useful for software testing, especially when testing some unstable or dangerous software uses a very practical, not find another computer to test.

Tips:
User accounts can also help control what each user can use files and applications, and what changes to the computer, which can be set by administrator or regular user such as different user levels to achieve. If you need interoperability between users using file, the easiest way is to store the file in a non-system partition to the partition folder is not encrypted.
