As of Windows 10 (haven't tried on 11) it asks if you want to log in with a single app, or the whole user account. I think that's great. Contrast that with Apple, that forces you to login to iCloud (and link your computer's serial with your iCloud account) whenever you log in to the App Store, and requires an Apple ID to download free apps from the App Store, AND enables all iCloud sync options on by default whenever you are logged into iCloud (i.e. you login to the app store, now by default your Stocks, Siri info, Contacts, a bunch of app preferences through iCloud Drive, now get synced without any consent).
- kop316 5y agoHmm...I'll have to look into this, thanks! I did not see an option for that that was obvious to me.
- zamadatix 5y agoCan confirm it's the same on 11 as well, "No, sign in to this app only" is the trick https://i.imgur.com/hm8tR9k.png https://i.imgur.com/hm8tR9k.png. If you're using a personal account for the sign in I don't think the checkbox towards the top is there but otherwise the window is the same. As is right now I have a local unlinked windows account, a work account signed into Office, and a personal account signed into the store.
