All users sign in to the computers by using their Azure AD account.
Enterprise State Roaming is enabled.

C. both the Microsoft account and the work account

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
What account is used for settings sync?
In Windows 8.1, settings sync always used consumer Microsoft accounts. Enterprise users had the ability to connect a Microsoft account to their Active Directory domain account to gain access to settings sync. In Windows 10, this connected Microsoft account functionality is being replaced with a primary/secondary account framework.
The primary account is defined as the account used to sign in to Windows. This can be a Microsoft account, an Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) account, an on- premises Active Directory account, or a local account. In addition to the primary account, Windows 10 users can add one or more secondary cloud accounts to their device. A secondary account is generally a Microsoft account, an Azure AD account, or some other account such as Gmail or Facebook. These secondary accounts provide access to additional services such as single sign-on and the Windows Store, but they aren't capable of powering settings sync.

Link provided by admin is broken: In the November 2015 or later releases of Windows 10, Enterprise State Roaming is only supported for a single account at a time. If you sign in to Windows by using a work or school Azure AD account, all data will sync via Azure AD. If you sign in to Windows by using a personal Microsoft account, all data will sync via the Microsoft account. Universal appdata will roam using only the primary sign-in account on the device, and it will roam only if the app’s license is owned by the primary account. Universal appdata for the apps owned by any secondary accounts will not be synced. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/active-directory/devices/enterprise-state-roaming-faqs#:~:text=How%20do%20Microsoft,not%20be%20synced.
