How to change Sync your settings Microsoft Account

I have 3 windows 10 devices, 2 of them have been configured with *** Email address is removed for privacy *** and hence the settings and all other sync features are working fine. however; the 3rd device is synced to *** Email address is removed for privacy ***!

This is the problem that this 3rd device is not syncing anything from my other two devices and vice versa. how do I change my 3rd device to sync with *** Email address is removed for privacy ***?

I tried going to Settings-->Accounts-->Sync your settings--> here do not see any where to change the windows /microsoft ID.

Hi Manikhadan,

Welcome to Microsoft Community and we appreciate your interest in Windows 10.

I will definitely assist you.

As per your information, since you are log-in using *** Email address is removed for privacy *** on the third device, you will not able to sync *** Email address is removed for privacy *** settings. To sync the third device with *** Email address is removed for privacy *** settings you need to create new user account and Sign in with Microsoft account (*** Email address is removed for privacy ***).

Visit the below link for Sign in with a Microsoft account:
