At times, you might want to use multiple email accounts in Outlook. If so, you can follow this guide to add multiple email accounts to the Outlook app in Windows 11/10:
First, you need to open the Outlook app on your computer. Now, there are two ways to add a second or third email account.
1] You can click on the settings gear icon visible in the top-right corner.
2] You can click on the Add account button visible under your email address on the left-hand side.
If you choose the first method, you need to click on the settings gear icon visible in the top menu bar. Then, make sure that you are in the Accounts > Your accounts tab. If so, click on the Add account button.
However, if you want to go through the latter method, which is faster than the first one, you need to find the Add account option visible under your email address.
In both cases, you can use any email address, including Gmail, Hotmail, Outlook, etc.
Once you enter your email address, click the Continue button. Depending on the email service provider, it opens different wizards for the credentials. However, if you enter a Microsoft account, you can enter the password using its wizard.
