Windows 10: Microsoft Account Credentials Not Accepted When Creating Data Collector Set in Performance...

I'm trying to create a custom Data Collector Set in Performance Monitor and I get to the end and it asks to Run As: so I select my Microsoft Account alias, which is a gmail address and input my password (which works fine when I access my Microsoft Account online)




...and I get this:
