Using the Store

You can purchase apps or get free apps from Windows Store.

If a local account is being used, a window to switch to a Microsoft account appears while using Windows Store. Follow the instructions on the screen to switch the local account to a Microsoft account.

If you switch to a Microsoft account, your PC settings (background, user settings, etc.) may be changed to the previous settings.
