81 devices can be linked to one Windows account
Since the launch of Windows 8, the number of devices between which settings and applications could be synchronized was limited to five. In response to numerous comments from developers, Microsoft drastically changed this number and from October 9, it will be possible to bind 81 ( sic ) devices to one Windows account , which seems to be enough for everyone.
The innovation means that now business models that are tied to Windows devices, now no longer have artificial restrictions associated with one account - we are talking about Windows 8 and the latest Windows 8.1. Well, the most avid Microsoft fans will now be able to use the Windows Store with maximum convenience, synchronizing applications and settings with all their devices and getting the right environment to work almost everywhere they go.
For developers, a special API is provided , with which you can determine the number of devices on which the program is running, and if you want to limit it at your discretion.
