Hi All,

I am using windows 11 home. I want to remove the work or school account as I am not using that account anymore. But I am not getting an option to remove the account from my system. I am not using that account in any of the apps and all the apps related to that account are deleted.

I searched online for the same. Usually, the option is to right-click on the account and delete it. But I am not getting that delete option.

Please let me know how to proceed.

In the attached screenshot, the account highlighted in maroon is the one which I want to remove.

Thanks.

    Thank you so much that was exactly what I needed I agree with you I think it's stupid to have it in another menu it's the same sorta thing. Maybe it's like that on the corporate end to help separate accounts?

    Thank you for the help. I was able to disconnect those accounts with ease once I knew where to go. Thank you once again.

    Try just clicking "start" and start typing "Access Work or School" and open that if it doesn't show up under "Accounts" like below. There you will have a disconnect button. "Email and Accounts" lists them but no disconnect button. This is confusing design, IMO.
