Windows 10: I would like to add a second computer to my account, but I don't want them to share the...

I would like to add a second computer to my Microsoft account, install Microsoft 365 family, but I don't want them to synchronize the desktop, files. browsers and so on, they will be for different users. A couple of years ago I added a computer but everything was synchronized, I could not separate them and I ended up adding one more account and paying for one more version of Microsoft Office. Please advise if there is a way to do this, note that I am not computer savvy, and I would need very clear and step by step directions.Thanks

Cannot access shared network drive

I could scream! so much time wasted on this stupid error, as if time is not precious enough!
It probably would work fine if I could see the other computer! But I cannot see the other computer!

 

Cannot access shared network drive


Personally, I wouldnt use Everyone. If anyone hacks into you, they have full access to everything and can demolish everything on your raid. I would rather set up accounts and access separately for each person. That way, I know who did all that damage. In the end with a little extra work, I feel more secure by using Authenticated Users.


If this helps.
step 1 create non-microsoft account and without email and address without admin rights
step 2 share a drive or folder to specific user account (if Everyone is listed, remove it)
step 3 set security > add Authenticated Users (if more than 1 account) or add specific users
step 3a remove Everyone from list
step 3b uncheck full control and write for all items listed except SYSTEM and Admin account.
step 4 right click Start > Computer Management > System Tools > Shared Folders > Shares ... to verify settings and change anything else. You can also see the number of connections to each share here.
