    fix files explorer showing account disconnected?

    Hi Rakhee,

    I'm Christine, a Windows user like you. I can see here that you're having a "Account Disconnected" message on your File Explorer. No worries, I'll be happy to assist you with this.

    The "Account Disconnected" message means there's no Work or Office account signed in with it.

    Since you would like to remove it, please follow the steps below:

    In File Explorer, please click the 3 dots or (…) and kindly select Options.

    Under Privacy, please untick the "Show files from Office.com" and hit Apply then OK.

    It should disable the "Account Disconnected" message on your File explorer.

    Please let me know how it goes. I'm just here.

    Thank you,

    Christine L

    Unauthorized Emails from my account?

    It is more than likely that your email account was hacked, either by a virus sniffing your password, or just simply hacked.

    Either way, change your password on your email account. Unfortunately the damage by already be done. They already have your contact list and your email address associated with that contact list. There is nothing stopping them from sending out emails using their own SMTP servers to everyone on your contact list and claiming the emails are from your email address. They don't actually have to have access to your yahoo account or even any yahoo server to send emails to people that come from your address.
