    How to unlink Email Accounts in Win 10 Mail App

    The "save" button is not necessary to unlink an inbox. (Neither is running the app troubleshooter.)

    To unlink a linked inbox:

    • Click/tap the "gear" icon in Mail
    • Click/tap "Manage Accounts"
    • Click/tap the linked inbox you wish to unlink (it will appear next to an icon of a linked chain)
    • On the window that comes up, click/tap the "Unlink inboxes" link.
    • The window will disappear, and all inboxes previously linked in that linked inbox will be separate again, and that linked inbox will be gone - all without hitting the "save" button.
