  1. Migrating Device to new account


    I am in the process of doing a clean install on my work computer. I just realized that I have set both my work and home computer up under the same microsoft account. I am wondering if I need to / can migrate the work computer to my work email new microsoft account.My fear is that during the new install, when I log into my microsoft account it will pull my windows product / credentials from my home computer and not the work computer and somehow mess things up.Also, I purchased office under my personal email for the work computer - will that matter when re-installing?Thanks,

    :)

    Hi, lots of results if you search for
    device not migrated due to partial or ambiguous match

    - suggest uninstalling the root hubs and let them reinstall on reboot.

    Did this occur after a Windows update was applied? (See Update History).
