    Some of your accounts require attention

    Every couple days, I get a Windows 10 (v1903, build 18362.535) Notification that something needs attention, and that something is that I need to re-log in to Windows 10 Shared Experiences (Start -> Settings -> Shared Experiences). The fact that I'm always logged into Onedrive hasn't been affects. At Shared Experiences I see "Some of your accounts require attention." Button: "Fix Now" When clicked, it asks me to log in.

    What is logging me out? It's not every time I reboot.

    After I correctly type the password for my account, it wants me to type the password for a second account which is closed. I have found no way to make it forget about this old account.

    How do I make it forget the old account?

    Some of your accounts require attention: old work account

    Hello,

    I receiving notifications by Windows 10 saying that there are issues with my account which need to be resolved. When a click on the notification it takes me to "Shared experiences" and under the "Accounts" heading there is a notification in red saying that
    "Some of your accounts require attention". Under this there is a "Fix Now" button but when I click on this it requests my password for an old work account which is no no longer active, therefore I cannot logon.

    Also I have tried the "Manage my accounts" and the old work account is listed. However, the only option I have is to "Manage" the account and when clicking on this it again request my password. So I effectively have no way to remove this account and stop
    the annoying messages from popping up.

    Is the formal Microsoft solution for this, or even a work around?

    Kind Regards,

    Shane
