How can I use a AzureAD account as administrator for SQL Server Master Data Services

I have tried setting up master data services on my Windows 10 laptop with a SQL Server 2019 Developer edition. On the step of creating the database, I tried using my AzureAD account, as this is the user I use to login to WIndows, but the installer returns an error saying it cannot lookup my user.

Has anyone seen this error message before? How did you work around this or how can this be solved?
