Microsoft Account Conversion#

../_images/localaccount.png

Before running some Playbooks, users are asked to convert their Microsoft account to a local account.

This is typically due to a Playbook removing support for Microsoft accounts, meaning that, if not converted beforehand, that account may become unusable on that installation after running the Playbook.

What are local accounts?#

Local accounts are user accounts that are local to the system, meaning they have no ties to any online account, such as a Microsoft one.
