Windows 10: How to delete an account from "Accounts used by other apps"? Answer inside!

I struggled with this myself and after chatting with Microsoft, I've got the answer to share with everyone.


When going to Settings -> Accounts -> Email & accounts -> Accounts used by other apps


I have an old account there from work plus a new account from school on my personally owned laptop.


I want to delete the old work account.


If I select the account *** Email address is removed for privacy ***, the only option I have presented to me is a "Manage" button that takes me to a browser window and I (ultimately) don't get the resolution I'm looking for.


Here's how Microsoft remote connected to my computer to delete it:


Settings -> Accounts -> Access work or school (left hand column) -> select the account and then click "Disconnect"


That did it for me. I hope this helps others.

Deleting User Accounts

Does anyone know how to delete an administrator account from another os on another partition (or using a live cd)?

I dont have access to the administrator account and i need to remove the other administrator account

 

Deleting User Accounts

If you can access the admin account through safe mode then all you have to do to remove the other account passwords is go into User Accounts in the control panel and either delete the accounts or, I'm not sure, remove the account passwords.
