device association

About this tag
Device association on Windows refers to how the Movies & TV (Films & TV) app links purchased content to your Microsoft account and a limited set of devices. Each account can have up to five devices associated for offline downloads, including PCs, tablets, phones, and Xbox consoles. Devices are added automatically when you sign in and buy content. When you reach the five-device limit, you must remove an existing device before adding a new one, but removals are restricted to once every 30 days. Understanding these rules helps you manage your movie library across devices and avoid playback issues.
