    How to separate Microsoft account to new computer


    We have a Surface Pro computer, which we love, and have just bought a new laptop computer to have an extra computer. When I set up the computer it linked everything from the Surface Pro to the new computer, can we use a separate account on the Pro and not lose all the data as the Pro only has 128Gb SSD and making changes on the new laptop will make the same changes in the Pro therefore taking up more space?
