Yes, you can use the same Microsoft account on multiple computers in Windows 10.
Microsoft allows you to use your Microsoft account on up to 10 different computers. This enables you to share files and settings seamlessly across multiple machines. To achieve this, you can install the same programs on each computer and then synchronize your data. Additionally, you can establish connections between computers using USB or Ethernet cables, which is particularly effective with Windows 10.
