    Cannot get Edge to stop automatically signing me in.....HUGE security risk!


    Edge won't stop signing me in automatically to my microsoft account when I open the browser. I need to send it in for repairs and this is a security issue since anyone will be able to access my account! I have signed out of my account on both Edge and Chrome, changed my password, etc. but the problem persists. It will not allow me to turn off syncing. I have tried to disable it....that didn't work. I have signed out of the account numerous times and it keeps signing me back in! HELP!

    :)

    Is windsows 7 a security risk?

    There is 2 security risks. No one can stop security holes even more so with MS software as it would be more targeted although Linux has got to be going up on that list to now.

    Microsoft Edge Extensions Pose Risk?

    Did anyone else notice that, although Mohammed's answer to Kenneth is very courteous, IT DOESN'T ANSWER THE QUESTION? The question is this: is using Microsoft Edge a security risk? Here is a suggestion for structuring the answer: (1) Yes, it is a security
    risk because of . . . and here's what you should/can do; (2) No, it isn't security risk and here's why.

    stopping automatic email sign in

    I am trying to stop Microsoft Edge from picking up my emails without me having to sign in to my email address. I have been into Internet Options>Security etc & selected "Prompt for user name & password nut this has not stopped "Edge" opening my emails; how
    do I stop this.

    All I want to do is have to manually sign in to my email addresses, and not to allow the 'system' to sign in automatically.

    I do have the latest version of Windows 10 Home Premium.
