  1. How can I tell if I have several Microsoft Accounts


    I cab log in and see my Media-PC. My Desk-top PC does not show on my MS online account which comes up under my name abbreviated as Mike. But If I go to settings your info I see my full name not abbreviated, If I want to make changes there, it asks me If I want to log on locally instead. It's is confusing. If I log on locally, does it mean this PC or my media PC. The only way I can rationalize this is that I have two accounts with each PC in a different account.


    Help.


    Mike
