    Ghost Work Account


    I used a work account on my computer for a previous employer, and I've since disconnected the account and set up a new work account on my computer. Everything works as it should until I try to enable the new Outlook. It immediately takes me to my previous employer's domain to sign in, but I can't. I tried to sign with any email account including my new employer's account, and it won't let me. I have to close Outlook altogether. I've gone to Settings>Accounts>Email and Accounts and the account giving me trouble isn't even listed so I can't "disconnect" as other replies have stated. In Out

    Calendar/People app issue regarding 'ghost Microsoft account' & 'UniversalOutlook'

    Hi. Acelyn Alc

    No I did not and I am not going to perform the suggested steps. All I want is to inform people that the latest software versions did not help me.

    Microsoft has to solve this. Not me. And they will. They did on my 950.

    Edit: update to version 17.8104.42387.0. Still the ghost account.

    Hi Gary,

    Sorry for the delay in response.

    • What is the make and model of the computer?
    • Do you face the issue only with Sniper Ghost Warrior?
    We would suggest you to update the graphics drivers and check.
