    Having just tried it several times, no it doesn't. Next time I load outlook after removing account, my name is in the drop-down and selecting it logs the account in without any password required. Even if I restart pc in-between.

    This may be some interaction with security settings at my org or typical Microsoft uselessness.

    There is an option to remove the account, that will log you out.

    The only thing I have found that works consistently is to sign out of my Microsoft Account Everywhere

    When I tested this, it took about 8 hours to finally log me out of my New Outlook For Windows app. (Doc says it can take up to 24 hours).

    Why would I want to remove the account? That sounds drastic! I just want to sign out, for heaven's sake!

    I was able to log out essentially by removing the account, here are the steps:

    clicked on the gear icon in the upper right side corner.

    clicked on accounts

    clicked manage accounts

    clicked on remove accounts
