About User Account Types

There are two types of user accounts available in Windows 8: a local account and a Microsoft account.

Local account

A local account is a user name and password that you set on your VAIO computer. Because one local account is

expected to be used for a single computer, you cannot share the same account on multiple computers.

Hint

Setting a local account password is optional. If you forget your local account password, recover your VAIO computer.

Microsoft account

A Microsoft account is an email address and password that you use to sign in to Microsoft services. Because a Microsoft

account can be set for each user, you can share the same account on multiple computers. To download apps from

Windows Store, you need to switch from a local account to a Microsoft account.

Hint

Setting a Microsoft account password is required. If you forget your Microsoft account password, contact Microsoft

support services.
