  1. Deleting an old workplace account


    Hello - I'm trying to remove an old workplace account from my personal computer, but going round in circles.


    In the list of accounts it's in the "Accounts used by other apps" section.


    Any suggestions would be very welcome.

    :)

    Remove workplace account from Lumia 950

    This didn't work. I have successfully removed the email and calendar links, but the phone is still trying to connect to my workplace account. These are listed separately from emails. The emails offer a delete function. The Microsoft accounts linked to
    other apps, such as a workplace account do not give a delete option. You are allowed to add accounts, but I need to remove one.

    There is a possibility that you work account is also connected to your Microsoft account. You may check this by doing the following:

    • Log in to your email account using an Internet browser on a desktop computer.
    • Go to the Options and select Connected accounts under the
      Accounts category.
    • If you see your work email account in the Connected accounts, select it and click on the
      Trashcan icon.

    Let us know what happens after.

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
      Code:
      net user test /del
