to remove unused Microsoft account from pc

To remove an unused Microsoft account from a Windows PC, use the path that matches how that account is connected:

1. For another user account on the PC:
   • Open Settings > Accounts > Other user.
   • Under Other users, select the account.
   • Next to Account and data, select Remove.
   • This removes that person’s sign-in information and data from the device, but does not delete their Microsoft account.
2. For a work or school account connected to the device:
   • Open Settings > Accounts > Access work or school.
   • Select the dropdown next to the account.
   • Select Disconnect and confirm with Yes.
   • This removes the sign-in information and data from the device, but does not delete the account.
3. If the account is showing in Teams:
   • In Teams on Windows, macOS, or web, select the profile picture at the top of the app, then select Sign out.
   • For a personal account on Windows, go to Start > Settings > Accounts > Email & accounts, choose the account, then select Remove.

Important:

• Removing an account from the PC does not close or delete the Microsoft account itself.
• For work or school accounts, complete removal may require the IT admin.

• Manage User Accounts in Windows
• Sign out or remove an account from Microsoft Teams
