Sync Settings not available for Windows 10 build 1703 for workplace domain joined desktops

 

After upgrading to Windows 10 Pro creators update (Build 1703) I experienced problems to setup sync settings for Microsoft account oder Business or School account, while the desktop is joined to a local domain.

 

The issue can be reproduced under the following situations:

• Window 10 Build 1703 installed from scratch
  
• MS Account in cloud available
  
• MS Business or School Account in cloud available
  
• Sync settings is enabled for all users in Azure AD (EMS License available)
  

Action taken

• Initial Setup with lokal user
  
• Joined to local domain "my-local-domain.local"
  
• Logged in with a domain user with local admin role
  
• Connecting MS Business or School Account - Result: Sync Settings greyed out even after hours and reboots
  

afterwards or alternatively

• Adding MS Account - Result: Sync Settings greyed out
  

I noticed on the pc installed from scratch I cannot setup PIN for login.

 

That did work on a new installed from scratch pc after lokal login:

• joined to Azure AD domain - Result: Sync Settings is available at once after reboot and logon
  

or

• Added User with MS Account - Result: Sync Settings is available at once after reboot and logon
  

It did not work either with connected MS Business or School Account to al local user account. Sync Settings is not available.

 

On PCs that were upgraded from Windows 10 Build 1607 with local domain user accounts, that did run fine with sync settings via MS Account oder Business or Schoolaccounts did not sync settings (greyed out) after upgrade to build 1703
