# Microsoft Account Dialog
An alternative way to add a Microsoft account to Windows.
## Usage
To add a Microsoft account to Windows, one has to do the following:
- Open Windows Settings.
- Accounts → Email & accounts.
- Click Add an account.
- Click Outlook.com.
This application provides the same functionality but in the form of a desktop app.
This maybe used as a stand in replacement for adding Microsoft accounts to Windows in case its not possible to add through Windows Settings.
- Simply download the latest release from [`GitHub Releases`](https://github.com/Aetopia/MicrosoftAccountDialog/releases/latest) and run the application.

- [.NET SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download)
- [.NET Framework 4.8.1 Developer Pack](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet-framework/thank-you/net481-developer-pack-offline-installer)
2. Run the following commands to compile:
```cmd
dotnet restore
dotnet publish -c Release
```
