When I try to add a new Office 365 email to my outlook I get the error below. I think it's because of my "Work or school account" which I want to remove. I'm not sure how my email was signed up for this second account. I set up this computer for home use only, I won't be using any of the Microsoft Azure features.
My question is, what will happen when I remove my “work account” and leave my Microsoft account? Everything is backed up on Onedrive, I just don’t know what to expect because when I went to remove it, it warned me about losing data and settings.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Microsoft really need to resolve this issue as it is effecting lots of people and causing a lot of wasted business hours.
Please stop bluffing to user and fiond a solution .
you have to disconnect the bios battery, disconnect the laptop battery press and hold the power button for 45 seconds and reset the tpm module from within bios by doing those steps make sure the laptop is noty plugged in, its worked 99 percent of the time, and you geniuses at Microsoft have yet to post this, your forums for fixing anything has NEVER HELPED ANYONE, your help forum is worse than web MD may as well just tell me my laptop has cancer!

I'm having the same issue for days now and I can't find a solution.
I am on the phone with Microsoft support for hours and days and whatever tricks we tried do not seem to produce any outcome.
