Can I use to Microsoft accounts on Windows 8?

Asked By Edward T Miller 40 points N/A Posted on - 09/23/2014

Hey Everyone,

I want to ask this question that can I use 2 Microsoft accounts on Windows 2 simultaneously. I mean I never tried this and really I don't experiment things myself with out any body's suggestions due to the fact that my account may be blocked or my genuine Windows will be suspended. So please tell me the answer.

Can I use to Microsoft accounts on Windows 8?

Hello Edward

I am assuming that you are facing this issue while using Internet Explorer, where it simultaneously logs you in with your Microsoft credentials.

Generally, it is very tricky to use two Microsoft accounts simultaneously on Windows 8.  Try the following steps to use different credentials of Microsoft.

(a) Go to the Program Folder of your Windows Installation

(b) Then go to the Internet Explorer Folder. So the path you need to go to is C:Program FilesInternet Explorer.

(c) Find the executable file iexplorer.exe.

(d) Right Click  on the file and choose Run as a Different User

(e) In the dialog box, click on the Microsoft account and supply the credentials accordingly.

This would enable you to use a different Microsoft Account from that used to login into the PC.
