What is a Microsoft ID (account)?
A Microsoft account is an email address and password that you use to
sign in to Windows. You can use any email address, but it is best if
you choose the one you already use to communicate with friends and
sign in to your favorite websites. When you sign in to your PC with a
Microsoft account, you'll connect your PC to the people, files, and
devices you care about.

easier because you can sync data across different machines you sign
in to using a Microsoft ID.
