Unable to remove my microsoft account from a linked pc

Hi Dave,

To help you with your concern in deleting your Microsoft account from a device, we'd like to ask a few questions:

• Have you tried deleting your Microsoft account directly from the old laptop?
• How did you go about removing the account from the old laptop?

Meanwhile, we suggest that you create a new local account with admin rights first, then remove the current Microsoft account by following the steps on this

article.

We look forward to your response.

Thank you.

 

Remove account from old pc

Hi Richard,

Apologies for the delay in responding. During this time, have you already removed the account on the PC? In case that you haven't, here are the steps on how you can remove an account in Windows 10.

Note: Before you can remove an account, you need to create a Local Administrator. Here are the steps:

• 
  Select the Start button, then select Settings
  > Accounts > Family & other people > Add someone else to this PC.
  
• 
  Enter a user name, password, password hint, and then select Next.
  
• 
  To make the new account an administrator account, select Start > Settings > Account > Family & other people, and select Change account type. Under Account type,
  select Administrator > OK. Restart your machine and sign in with the new administrator account.
  

To remove a user account in Windows 10, here are the steps:

• Press Windows key on your keyboard, click on Settings.
• Click on Account, click on Family and other users.
• Select the user you want to delete under Other users and click on Remove.
• Accept the UAC (User Account Control) prompt.
• Select Delete account and data if you wish to delete account and the data and follow onscreen instructions.
