Sorry if this is a stupid question. So, when I'm editing a word doc or excel doc, I can see my name (account I guess) on the top right. I don't remember seeing my name there in previous computers I owned or in college computers when I was in college a few years ago. My question is, if I click sign out, what will happen? Will I no longer be able to work on the doc and/or open it? What if instead of signing out, I switch users? Does MS now require an account of some sort for me to use their programs?
Thanks.

Microsoft aims for everyone to use an MS account with all their programs. If you log out, it should only do what is described here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/offi...8cb6d92071
