About sync settings on Windows 10 devices

Windows keeps track of the settings that you care about when sync is turned on and sets them for you on all your Windows 10 devices.
Also you can choose to sync web browser settings, passwords and colour themes.
If you turn on Other Windows settings, Windows syncs some device settings (for things like printers and mouse options), File Explorer settings and notification preferences.


For syncing to work, you need to sign in to Windows 10 with your Microsoft account (or link your Microsoft account to your work or school account) on any device that you want to keep in sync. If the Sync settings option isn’t available on your device, your organisation might not allow this feature.
