Windows 10: Signing on to multiple PC's with same MS Account - best practice pse

I am working with an elderly couple who have always used the same user login and password on their two computers for convenience. They wish to stay with that method but with one PC at Win 8.1 and one now gone up to Win 10, I'm not sure whether we will have problems arising where the PC's are trying to Sync settings across to each other and complicating the individual customisation of each PC. eg. both are running separate copies of MS Office but then accessing the same email account via Office POP3 Outlook. *Confused

Question: What is the best practice for configuring your PC's in this scenario and what do I need to consider.
Thanks heaps for any guidance.

(Ps. I'm thinking it would be a whole lot easier for them to have individual MS Account logins)

Family safety in windows 10 essentially broken

It would be lovely if MS paid attention to what was being complained about.

What efisk said: "I can't give him multiple accounts unless I create multiple dummy email accounts to back them."

MS response: A link to a page that states basically the same thing.

In the rush to the sexy cloud, MS want to use any excuse to force us to use MS account to sign in to our own PC.

 

N82 - deleting all data

how can I delete all data, eg contacts, calendar and notes, from my nokia n82 pse?

I find that when I synchronise with my pc and laptop I get multiple copies of each contact. I reckon the best thing is to delete all data and start again.

 

There won't be any issues with them using the same MS account for Windows 8.1 and Windows 10.

Or just turn off account syncing:

 

Thanks NavyLCDR - good to know. I will disable that Account Synching option on both machines just to be sure.
