Switch between accounts
I have 2 Outlook.com accounts, 1 Office365 account, and 1 Gmail account I'd like to access through Outlook.com. Please allow me to switch easily between these accounts. I should be able to log in once, and link all of these together, and then switch between them easily. Currently I need to sign out and sign in to switch.

Google allows even to log in to two accounts (or more) and you get every account in a browser tab. No need to switch. I have to use to outlook accounts (my company and a client) ant it is **** to review incoming mail. Why cannot outlook to do the same??

So, wait. This has been marked as Completed over a year ago? its clearly not. You can add a Google account (of all things!) but you cant add a second Outlook account? lets get this clear GOOGLE IS FAR AHEAD OF MS IN THIS SPACE! Thier account management in email is far superior and has been for years. Like everyone else I am sick of logging out and back in (or just running multiple browsers). but the fact that MS will actually mark this as completed? Cmon.

Google lets me log all my accounts and switch between them from the top right menu. When will MS find out how to do the same?
At least for 365 and all my tenants... Or at least fix the log out thing, it always fails and I don't like closing the entire Chrome for your ****** tabs that can't logoff. There is incognito mode, but really, when will MS get professional instead of having everything botched and as a workaround? -

Commenters talk about "switching" between accounts or, god forbid, linking accounts. On a laptop/desktop I want to have 3 tabs or 4 tabs open, at least 2 with different outlook/live accounts open, but not linked.

The "account.microsoft.com" site supports "sign in with a different account" to make it easy to switch. It doesn't show the various accounts, but it avoids having to sign-out and going to the MSN home page. Heck, when I sign out, I should be taken to the sign-in page, not MSN, tahat alone would be a huge leap forward. Let MSN be its own product, don't taint Outlook with it for no good reason.

I would love to see this feature back as I'm tired of having to sign out and sign in the different Outlook/hotmail accounts that I own or manage for nonprofits and others. It was so much easier when this feature was available. And btw, apparently Gmail has it now, but I still like Outlook better, please bring it back.

I would love to be able to have multiple accounts accessible when using the desktop version. I have it set up on my phone app that way and I love it, I wish I could do it on my computer that way too.

Users should have the ability to switch between Outlook.com accounts. This feature was there in the old Outlook.com.

Ability to switch between other Outlook.com accounts. This feature was there in the old Outlook and would like to see Microsoft bring it back.

Can you make a toggle to be able to switch through different outlook accounts if you have multiple (like the app), that way you don't have to sign out and sign in again every time to check accounts?

Yes I would love to be able to switch between my outlook inboxes in webmail much like how I do it in the Outlook phone app.

Please make it possible to log in to multiple hotmail/outlook accounts open within one web browser in outlook.live.com.

Please make it easy to switch accounts. Having to sign out then back in again is a nonsense
