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"?

2021-06-23T22:21:31+00:00 Now that amused me. Sadly though it's an even bigger shambles in Android if you have a family and a business setup. Prepare for tears.
I have been trying to sort out one drive but I have the family login and the business one on this new PC. Trying to be thorough at initial setup. I set up OneDrive with my Business account. So it slaps me on the back of my hand and pops over the Family one and uses that. So I get the wrong data.
I tried Microsoft "help". That expression must be oxymoron of the year. They haven't got a clue.
If you hear a loud splash it will be me jumping into the North Sea with an anchor chain lashed round my ankles.
It would be SO, SO easy to give us a delete button. But this, of course, is Microsoft

2021-06-16T14:58:15+00:00 This is what finally worked for me. I'm on a domain so when I logged in as a local administrator, the accounts didn't even show up in Email & accounts. I signed back into my domain account then went to Access work or school and see the account I want to get rid of has the Disconnect button.
