Windows 10: Bought a new laptop - can't sign in

Bought a new laptop

Trying to set it up - so i put in my work email - NOT ALLOWED

so i put in my personal email - NOT ALLOWED

so i set up a new email - NOT ALLOWED


Why can't i just use the same microsoft account?

Do they realise that some people have MORE THAN ONE COMPUTER?


Thinking about sending it back

I'm not setting up some terrible email address i'll never look at just so i can have even more log-ins to remember


I've been away from Windows for a few years, and now i recall why

:)
