Removing an account from "Emails & Accounts" in Windows 10

I cannot remove an account from Settings /  Email & Accounts / Manage. The delete button does not appear. When I click Manage, my browser opens and tells me to sign into an account in Microsoft Online. It was an account that I used for an old domain, that was connected to a MS Office product.

How do I get rid of these account and the annoying reminders that "there is a problem with my account"?

    That works but why not from Email & Accounts?

    Thank you for this. I was looking for months on how to remove my old school account. I just ignored the warnings (which is annoying).

    But probably not as annoying as Microsoft not making an user friendly, intuitive system to find things.
