I have a computer on a domain and login with a Microsoft Account. Now, I would like to add a true domain account (domain\user) to the users allowed to login to this computer. Numerous examples can be found to login to a domain using a Microsoft Account, but none to add a domain account!

How do I do this?

  • You add the user just like you did in Windows 7 and any previous version of Windows. There is an option to create a non-Microsoft local user in Windows 8. With a domain user you do that on the domain server anyways. Talk with your IT admin for more information.

  • You add domain users to the domain, not the computers.

By default, all domain users can log onto (almost) any machine connected to an Active Directory domain. You do not need to add any user specifically to allow them access.
