It's unlikely the user will have multiple GHE accounts. I think maybe this can be simplified to "re-sign in to Copilot"


* For GHE.com accounts:

1. Run **Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)** or **Preferences: Open Workspace Settings (JSON)** from the Command Palette (`kb(workbench.action.showCommands)`)

This is exactly what we wanna call out here.

One thing I notice is that this is the first and only reference to signing in to GHE.com in this doc which makes me worried that for folks who want to sign in with their GHE.com account will set this instead of going through the normal flow (Continue with GHE.com)

NOTE: this sets that setting but at the user level

@TylerLeonhardt thanks for your feedback. I've added a dedicated section for signing in with a GHE.com account to avoid confusion with steps for multiple accounts.
