With a user account, multiple users can easily share a single computer. Each user can have a separate account with their own settings and preferences, such as a desktop background or screen saver. User accounts can also help control which files and applications each user can access and what changes can be made to the computer. The Windows 8 Home (Win8e.com) is organized from the Internet.
When you create a user account, you can create two types of accounts: a local computer account or a Microsoft account that can be used on all Windows8 and WindowsRT you use the computer. We recommend creating a Microsoft account.
your computer if the user account in the domain, then you create can grant people permission to access your computer, but can not grant permission to access the domain. Only a system administrator can create a domain user account.
steps to create a Microsoft account
Microsoft account you used to log on to Windows e-mail address and password. You can use any email address, but it's a good idea to choose an email address that you have used to communicate with your friends and log in to the website you frequent. When you log in to your computer with a Microsoft account, your computer automatically connects to the people, files, and devices you care about. (If you need an email address, we can provide you with a free.)
When you use a Microsoft account to sign in, your computer will automatically connect to the cloud, but also:
Your friends' contact information and status are automatically updated with network locations like Hotmail, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn.
you can access and share your photos, documents and other files from a network location such similar SkyDrive, Facebook and Flickr.
your personal settings (including your themes, language preferences, browser favorites and most applications) will be synchronized to any Windows8 and WindowsRT computer.
you can get the application in the Windows Store and use them on up to five Windows8 and WindowsRT computer. (Some applications require specific hardware configuration.)

step is to let the local account you can only access a computer account. If you create a local account, you will need a separate account for each computer you use. Nothing in your settings will sync between the Windows 8 computers you use, and you won't benefit from connecting your computer to the cloud. To download apps from the Windows Store, you need to use a Microsoft account.
Follow these steps to create a local account:
1. Swipe from the right edge of the screen to the middle, click on "Settings" and then click "Change PC Settings."
(if using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, then move the pointer down, click the "Settings" and then click "Change PC Settings".)

4. Tap or click "local account."
5. Enter your user name for the new account.
6. If you want the user to use password, then enter and confirm your password, add a password hint, and then click or click "Next."
If your computer is in a domain, the domain security settings might make you skip this step, if you like, just click or click the "Next" button. Users can change their passwords at the future.
7. Tap or click "Finish."
