    Linking personal and business One Drive accounts to work and personal computers


    Hello,I have connected my personal and work/business One Drive accounts to my work laptop. I just got a brand new personal laptop with a new personal Microsoft 365 subscription and connected my personal One Drive, but could automatically see files from my work One Drive even though I hadn't connected the account. I'm now worried it works both ways, and IT/colleagues can see my personal One Drive files?Thanks

    :)

  2. Business to personal account

    Need to find out how to get into computer. Boss gave work computer to me and then took down my business email and I can't get into my computer because it now says I can not add a personal email to a business account. Can't get past the pin code, it will
    not take the one I have been using for years. How do I get the business account off and use my personal to sign in. Do I have to uninstall Microsoft 365 and reinstall personal and how to I change the pin so I can get into the emails to delete the business
    email so that only the personal email remains

    [Moved from Account, billing and sign-in / Windows 10 / Microsoft 365 Apps or Office 365 Business]

    Personal and Business Account on Same Desktop

    Hi DaveM121,

    Even after I sign out of my business account, I still can't login to any of my personal accounts.



    To be clear, I want to have a business account and a personal (Microsoft Account) on one computer. Ideally, I would have Office 365 Business Standard on the Business Account and a Microsoft account with Office 365 personal as the personal account. I believe that is a standard MS setup. Microsoft seems to have a lot of material referring to business and personal accounts Do you know what setup they have in mind? I just don't have the knowledge and experience to set it up properly. Furthermore, I don't mind having the same apps on each account as long as the documents are separated.

    Any further comments/suggestions are appreciated. Tx

    Personal and Business Account on Same Desktop

    Hi Dave M121,

    Below is what I got:

    • I don't know why the first one is there so I can probably delete it;
    • The second one is my Microsoft Account (personal);
    • The third one is my Business account. It has a Microsoft Exchange email account associated with it;
    • The last one is a new account I created in the last few days while trying to resolve this issue. It is a local account with no email address associated with it.
    So, ideally, I'd like is to have the Business and Personal accounts (middle two accounts) and be able to switch from one to the other.

    • My Business account (third one listed) includes an MS 365 Business subscription which includes MS Business apps, Onedrive etc .
    • My personal account (second one listed) is an MS account which includes an MS 365 Family subscription which includes MS personal office apps, Onedrive etc .
    Does that help? Tx
