Windows 10: Seperate Personal Microsoft Account from School Account

Hello,I'd like to completely separate my personal Microsoft Account from a school account that it's linked to. I don't remember even linking them in the first place, but that's not important. I have not been able to find any clear method for doing this. As of now, whenever I sign in with my account, I am asked whether I want to sign in via my personal account or my school account, I don't ever want to sign in via my school account because I don't even attend the university that school email address is linked to anymore, which is why I want them separated.Thank you

Sync personal microsoft account and school microsoft account

I have one Microsoft account for School and one for personal usage (using multiple devices). How do I sync both accounts like, edge browsing history-favourites, windows personalize settings, etc.?

 

Windows 8 with 2 Microsoft accounts?

Yea, I would create a local account and just use your school account to login to Outlook and Onedrive.

Edit:
Here switch between local and microsoft account.
