    My son's OneDrive is attached to my Microsoft account.


    My son set up his school account including the school OneDrive on my computer. He did not set up a separate Microsoft login on my computer and so his OneDrive is attached to my MS account. This is creating problems because I enter my MS password but then it needs his login for One drive to operate.

  2. Windows 8 with 2 Microsoft accounts?

    Yea, I would create a local account and just use your school account to login to Outlook and Onedrive.

    Edit:

    Here switch between local and microsoft account.
