    Type credential in Windows Start Search box > Click Credential Manager > Clear off all credentials under Windows Credentials > Generic > Now reboot your computer

    If aboves doesn't solve the purpose - Copy the below line > Windows Key+R > Paste the copied text and Enter

  3. Remove an account

    Using windows 10. Our email, *** Email address is removed for privacy *** has been hacked... i.e., we're getting upwards of a 100 spam emails daily. I want to completely delete that email in "Window Live Email" and then set up a new Windows Live Email account with a new email address.

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