Sync your settings
When you sign in with a Microsoft account, Surface is connected to the cloud. This means that many of your
personal settings and preferences are stored on Microsoft servers online, and are synced to any Windows 8 or
Windows RT PC that you sign in to. For example:
Your chosen colors, themes, language preferences, browser history and favorites, and Windows Store
settings are synced between PCs.
You can get to and share your photos, documents, and other files on SkyDrive, Facebook, Flickr, and
other services without signing in to each service.
Choose which settings to sync
If you want to keep some of your personal settings more private, you can turn off syncing for specific settings,
or turn off syncing entirely. To choose which settings sync across PCs:
1. Sign in with your Microsoft account. To find out if you already have a Microsoft account or to set one
up, see How do I get a Microsoft account? on Windows. com.
