In VSCode, I'm logged to GitHub Copilot with my personal account but want to change to my work account. How to change it? I don't find the option

Hi @paulobndes ,

To switch from your personal account to the work account in VS Code follow these steps:

1. Click on the profile icon located at the bottom left corner of VS Code,
2. Sign out of your personal account.
3. Turn on your Settings Sync.
4. Sign in with GitHub.

Note that when the browser opens to authorize VS Code to access GitHub you must be logged in with the account you want to use.
