User Accounts

Using a Microsoft account

If you have ever used Outlook.com, Hotmail, OneDrive, Skype, Xbox, and Office 365, the email
address and password that you use for any of those services is your Microsoft account.
When you sign in to your HUAWEI MateBook using a Microsoft account, your HUAWEI
l
MateBook will automatically sync your data from Microsoft services (such as OneDrive, Skype,
and Outlook.com).
If you have used your Microsoft account to sign in to other Windows devices, your system
l
settings will also be synced.
Documents, photos, and other files are saved to OneDrive by default. OneDrive is a file
l
hosting service that allows you to access your files from any device, wherever you are.

Using a local account

A local account can only be used on your HUAWEI MateBook. Your settings, apps, and services
will not be synced to other Windows devices.
