I am migrating our office from a workgroup to a Server 2012 Essentials server.  Things have gone smoothly with the Win 7 desktops where the local user account migrated automatically.  The problems started with the Windows 8 machines where the migration

is not automatic.  I have used the Easy Transfer wizard to backup my profile, but when I try to port it to my new domain account, there is no option to select the domain user--only my previous local user.  I read in another post where the problem

is related to the local user being a "Microsoft Account" user, and my account was of that type when I ran the WETW.  What do I need to do to get our three Win 8 users migrated?

I am running Win 8 Pro 64-bit.
